hello everybody !
I'll start with saying what i've done this year :
this was only my 2nd year as grower and my biggest pumpkin was 150 Lbs , and the 2nd was 130 Lbs , i know , that's not much.
But in 2003 I'll have a lot more place to grow and I want to have better seeds.Can anyone help me with choosing seeds ? they can be expansive , but not TO expansive , ok ?
Can you also give me some tips to grow , because next year i want to have a big one !!! By the way : I live in belgium and i'm only 15 years old , but i like growing pumpkins very much , and just can't wait 'till next year !!

( I'm sorry for my bad English, but i'm still learning it at school )
bye , and thank you already !!

lol , maybe 150 Lbs isn't bad , but I want to grow much bigger pumpkins than that !!!
The guy who won the conquest in my town, had a 433 Lbs pumpkins , he was huge ! ( the biggest in Belgium was a lot more than that ! )
I think everybody wants to grow a big one , but not everyone knows the tricks to make them so huge !
Everyone has his own tricks , but no one will tell them !
But that's the beauty of it : you have to find tricks on your own !!

Let's keep trying to grow a big one and see next summer !
And maybe we all have a new world record :) ( just kidding )

bye
( sorry for my English )

hey supergrower, sorry for your english, you have excellent english!! As for seeds, you can check out the seeds here, they are cheap considering... As for which ones, it depends on what you are looking for, for example: shape, color, etc... Good luck, and don't hesitate to ask!!! Steve

Thanks , but shape, color, etc... doesn't matter for me !
All I want is fast growing seeds !
I allready found how you can watch the persons who have seeds , but that's it , nothing to contact or , ...
You said the seeds are cheap ?? excuse me but i don't think that's true , but it's better this way !They can cost something, that's normal , and transporting it to Belgium is also expansive , but I just want very goods seeds ( of a large pumpkin ) and I allmost want to be sure I'll have a big one !! ( but that's impossible is guess )
bye !!!
