Here is 1 really big plant. I bought Another Dills AG pack and started it the other day. It's in the ground. I don't know if I have enough time left to make it to allerd, but I'm hoping to get at least a 100 pounder by Halloween!!

I went to Lowes again and bought another Dills AG pack. They were filed and soaked in the "triple threat mixture" for 12 hrs then sprouted on top of the hot water heater. Today is day 10. Got their second watering with the triple threat.. seem to be getting huge. hopefully these are real AG's!!

I guess out of the 4 packs of ferry morse AG's I bought, I finally got 1 real one. The difference is clear between an AG and a Big Max!!

I have a size 10 foot, so you can see the leaves and vine are huge. I hope I get something in time for Halloween. I am feeding 1 oz of liquid kelp in 1 gallon of water every other day, plus normal watering and fish emulsion once a week. Any other ideas out there to make it grow faster? email me at [email protected] if you can help!!! Thanks!!!

This here is a Big Max plant. I have been feeding it like an AG. It has gone nuts. I havent trimmed it at all. Im going to try to grow it on this workbench I bought for 50 cents. Next year, I will try to grow one on the roof of the shed!!!
