I would also provide seed. I still have seed from some nice 200+ pounders from last year. This year I had some nice melons, but nothing over 165.

Just send an email to james@rconnect.com and I will send you my address. Then just send me a SASBE and I will send you seeds. The reason I ask for the SASBE is that I receive around 70 requests last year for seed and the postage gets excessive.

Yes, of course. To make it easy, here's my address.

James White

Rochester, MN 55904

I had less then stellar melons this year because of....
1) Hail in early July
2) 5 weeks drought in June/July
3) 14 inches of rain in one day in August
4) 3 weeks without sun in August
5) Hard freeze in early September

I am such a whiner. But you wait for next year. I know I can't wait.

I am too looking for giant watermelon seeds, but i am from Slovenia/Europe. I can send the self adressed bubble envelope, youst write me e-mail.

Malaysia

Hello Melon Man, I'm from Malaysia. I love to have some giant watermelon seeds. I can send the sel-addressed bubble envelope. But I cannot get the US postage stamps here. Can you help a special case?

Rochester, Minnesota

Are you saying that you can't send to me, or that you can't include stamps so that I can send back to you?

If it's the case that you can't get postage for the return trip, then just send to me and include some local coinage. I collect foreign coins, and I don't think I have anything from Malaysia. I will fill it up and send it back to you with the right postage.

Malaysia

Yes, James, I will gladly send you the Malaysian coins, and some Singapore coins too. I appreciate your kindness.

Sorry for the delay, but I sent all the SASBE's today. Even the over seas ones. If you don't receive them within the next week or so, let me know. Overseas may take longer.

My seed packages are not terribly impressive to look at other than they contain seeds. Here are some genetics if you are interested.

Wasn't a great year, as I have said, but there is good parentage in these.
