Tis is my first year in that i grow really big pumpkins. The year´s before i had also grow pumkins but they were not really big (the biggest about 50lbs),because they were all seeds from the gardencenter.I´m sure every had relicognized that i´m not an american,because my English is not so perfect.So i say sorry forwards to all my mistakes in writting that i will do :).... I´m a member of crazy-growers and everybody there talked about this great site so i want to become a member here too.
