For more information on what's being tested, check out my diary. http://bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=179558

Anyway I need some atlantic giant seeds to experiment on, the genetics or the size of the parent pumpkin matter very little. What matters is they must be from the one pumpkin and there must be ~100 or so of them.

They'll be used as experimental test subjects, being tested against a variety of growing and soil conditions. All the results will be released on my grower diary.

So if anyones got a big bunch of seeds from your reject pumpkin that you would just love to donate and see tortured, please email me at: damian.peckett@gmail.com

Size of the fruit matters very little, but I am interested in examples of an "average" atlantic giant. ~300lb and above should do well. Hoping to limit the effects of epigenetics.

Though if the pumpkin grew on the secondary of a vine whose main yielded a ~500lb+ fruit, size doesn't matter.

Also I'm looking toward more cold climate strains :), so the colder your environment the better.

Anyway best wishes, hit me with a message if you've got something handy,

Damian
