All right john !!!! I will toss my free orange into the world.....with just a few stipulations.
1. The seed will be sent to a new grower...definition, one that has never grown to the end of the season...ie weighoff, or seeds
2. If that grower gets to an estimated ott weight of 500 pounds, he or she needs to promise to make their best effort to get it to a weighoff.
3. After the weighoff, they need to promise to send me the same amount of seeds that i sent them.....along with a picture of their pumpkin. If the new grower transfers the seed to another, then that person should send seeds to whoever i sent those seeds to, and they return to me the required number
The seed i am offering is the 710 Borgers 2015, HD winner SESDGPG Harrisburg ,SD
i have about 125 seeds, so far, about 25 of them are spoken for..by new growers in 5 states
I send out in packages of 5
No need to send sasb....my award money is being used to pay for postage...cost about $5 to send
If you are a new grower, or know of new grower....my email address is bnot1962@gmail.com
by my calculation, seeds run out after the first 20
non usa inquiries, might require something other than free....depending on the cost of shipping
Let the big orange roll

John, your 840 Young produced the darkest orange pumpkins I have seen. I grew 3 off of the plant in 2013.

The 840 produced a beauty for me this year. Seeds from the 504 House 2015 UOW ( 840 Young x 811 Gerhardt ) and several other orange beauty's are available. Look in my diary if you want to see what the 504 and others look like. 504 seeds are one that I am sending to the seed exchange so if you are going to be in it this year you will get some.

by random chance, i ended up chatting today with an old gent who immigrated to the usa at age seven from the uk, the hair of a conversation before it was time for me to buy some mustard greens, and brussel sprouts + the smallest jumbo i could find.... the price of the 710 for non northamerican growers....involves one small payment.....for non usa first year growers....the trade offer for the 710 borgers is
from non N.A>= any coin...any denomination.....
for 5 710 borgers 2015 pumpkin seeds
with the fun challenge try to hit the post office at the same time....and see which arrives fastest
wonder if i will find any ch.(takers)
