Hello. I am new to growing big pumpkins. I started a few seeds last year, but they were started late and the pumpkin grew to about 75 lbs. I was thrilled about it but want to grow a BIG Pumpkin. I need some seeds. Can anybody help me out?

I think one of the best places to start might be with the club in your area, The Penn Giant Pumpkin Growers Association
http://www.pgpga.com/
There you will be able to find other growers in your area who will give you good pointer on how to grow and also good seeds.
also there are typically people here on Bigpumpkins.com, BP, that will be able to give you some of their seeds.

i have some seeds for you to develop a great base of
incredible genetics from, mostly unproven '05s but you won't get much better than that anyway right from the start.
crosses like 1230 Daletas X 845 Bobier (156 Gerry UOW),
845 Bobier '00 X 1140 Stelts (510.6 Gerry '05),
582 Hester X SELF (no such thing on the AGGC!),
1125 Frantz X 1097.5 Beachy (both of these parents have produced 1200 and 1432, respectively)...

hmmmmm....and a few others i am SURE will kick 75 pounds to the curb, into the street, and into the drain on the other side of the street! no doubt, probably ten-fold with these genetics. anyway, email me privately for my address,
