Welcome to Bigpumpkins.com You will find some of the most generous people you could ever wish to meet via the Message Boards on this Website. Take a while to look through the Boards and you will see that there are many growers who will send you Seeds with Great Genetic backgrounds for just the cost of the Bubble pack and Postage.
Regards
Mike

At the risk of sounding like a nationalist....didn't a local grower just break your country's record with a very impressive 912lber?...has he got seeds to share?....G

I am in contact with the guys who grew the 2 new British Records this year and i will be discusing the probabilities of Seeds from these Pumpkins. I have informed one of the growers that his Seeds are good and that he should save all the Seeds from their Pumpkins.

Howard Dill Has seeds or will this coming year. He owns a Giant Pumpkin farm in Nova Scotia, Canada, and is considered the Pumpkin growing King. He has a wide veriety of seeds. If you go to his site you can see how to order. As Halloween ends or in the New Year they should restock there seeds. It might cost a little because your overseas in England. Hope it helps.

Don't bother with the AG in England. I hear there's too many Mammoths.

More likly the reason ag do not grow well in uk is the lavery curse. this curse prevents only those who don't pay homage to the great bernard lavery. Also UK regulations make it illegal to grow any fruit over 900 because it then assumed be geneticly engineered and destroyed. lol
genetics is not the uk growers problem weather is.

I know Bernard Lavery, but it is a long time since i have seen or spoken to him. I was joking in my posting when i said i was confused. I do not want to discuss Bernard on these Boards therefor i will say no more.

bernard lavery was the holder of british pumpkin record of 710 plus and world record holder for about week.
He has also held world record for 25 plant vegetable catagories in guinness book and still holds several of them. as for a curse i was joking.
