I am looking for a few of these seeds for next year (578 Millican. I just thought that someone might know where I could find some. This pumpkin was grew in Zachary Louisiana, and I thought that it might be more heat tolerable. I would be willing to trade or pay for the seeds.

Thanks Justin

It was grown very far south, but you have to remember that it was grown near a large body of water.

He's just saying that it was only heat tolerable possibly cause it was grown near the Gulf I think. A low water table?
I dont know. If it was grown away from that, then it might be very heat tolerant.

The water acts as a heat radiator, maintaining a fairly steady temperature. The water also cools the air slightly.
