I don't think Martin has sent any of these out yet.

Shannon is right, I am collecting all bubble packs for a little while longer until I stuff them with my 05 seeds (1233.5, 1008.4, 801.5 X sibb cross). I will then send all packs in bulk to a trustworthy person in Canada (no customs problems) who will then send all packs in bulk to a trustworthy person in the US with a phyto certificate (hopefully no customs problems) and the person in the US will then mail off the individual packs. That's the plan, I think it should work, what do you think?

Please note that 1233.5 and 1008.4 seeds will also be available from Howard Dill.
He got me started in this hobby and I admire him a lot. When I posted pictures of my pumpkins on here Howard's kids emailed me to tell me how much Howard loved the looks of my pumpkins and that he would love to have these seeds on his 2006 premium seed list. I was honoured by his interest and will gladly give him some of my seeds for distribution.
So, if you get no 1233.5 or not as many as you would like from me then ordering them from Howard is a good option.
However, order as soon as the list is posted this winter as I am sure supply won't last long. Inexperienced, new growers (who are not too serious and don't visit sites like BP.com) like to order seeds from the really big pumpkins although genetics of the smaller ones should be just as good. So, the 1233.5 seeds could be sold out really soon.

Reading this 3 times a mounth from you, sounds a little condescending to me, may be I'm a bit oversensitive.

Martin, your plan of distribution makes very logical sense and I could bet who the trustworthy person in Canada is and you have made a good choice.

By offering your seeds through Howard Dill's website, perhaps more growers will have access to them in the future via trades and swapping.

Thanks/Glenn

i am sure he just meant 'get them while you can'
and was directing us 'serious' (since WE are here, reading it, lol!) growers as to why he figures they will sell out quickly from Dill's' website.
although, i realize i should just stay out of it.
mmmmmmmmmmmm...yup!

Martin, should we just attach the standard amount of US postage to the bubble envelopes we send you, or should we enclose money for postage within the US + your other shipping costs? The phyto certificate and shipping in bulk must not be cheap, so that's why I ask...
