It takes a big guy to carry a pumpkin like that! ;-) Any full size pics of the 893 and 1401.5 I can show my daughter?

bohica · February 11, 2010

LOL,
Yes please email me at sales@extremepumpkinstore.com with your email address and I will send you a few pics.
If your daughter would like to try a few seeds, I'd be happy to send a few to her.

Now you guys made me go to Walmart. I bought Rutgers tomato, since
I don't have it. Not a bad amount of seeds in it. I also bought salad
blend, contender green bean, brocolli, carrots, and 9 pkts of flowers.

Maybe you spend over 3 bucks there?

dustdevil · February 12, 2010

I had to stop at my nearest Walmart and found that the 20 cent packets of veggies were almost gone. They had lots of 20 cent flowers left.

mtbigfish · February 12, 2010

well you all started it - I had no intention of going to Wall Mart the I saw Marketmore Cucumber and remembered it and straight 8 and poinsetta 76 from years past
so I went buy to look - left with chives, cilantro, peppers, cucumbers, flowers etc etc etc and it was only $5 plus change -

I'll need a 1/2 acre just for this stuff

Yep, I'm a sucker. I picked up some crimson giant radish seed, marketmore cucumber and I will go back to get more! I'm just disappointed that Wally world had the best selection of all the places here.

How has germination been with these? I went to the website listed and noticed the Lawn and Garden company label was listed on there as well. Lowes was selling these last year and I looked up the company as I had never heard of them. Many people did not reccommend buying seed from them for different reasons chief among them- poor germination.
