I really enjoyed AGs but I do not have the time to do it justice. E-mail me and I'll forward you my letter of woe and my seed list. I know how growers feel about "selling" so up front I purchased 2 of the listed @ auction last year to make up a killer group. 1230Daletas,1156Larsen,also to have been planted and part of this are 951Castellucci,723Castellucci,1012.5Papez,1064LaRue,300Fasciano. 47 seeds total, chemicals,insect/fungicides, germination pads etc,etc. Just not the right time in my life. With regrets, John Guth

Well John Guth, your woes, are not the law & you must cut your loses without doing the pumpkin world wrong & leaving a stench behind, give your seed to charity auction & don't ruin your stay. Just my suggestion as It's still not legal to sell AG pumpkin seed. Bill

If he had to pay for them in an auction shouldn't he be able to just get his money back if he does not get a profit? The club/auction already got the money.
He will probably not make the value money wise on the materials he is selling. I don't see a problem with it.
We will miss you John. Good luck and God Bless.

No stench here - just that of a lot of hard labor and earthy smells plus the satisfaction the meeting of other growers who helped me and the conversation/interest it developed. Gave a lot of stuff away, helped a couple of kids stay out of trouble and made friends with my neighbors(spectators). Glad I did it - had fun- learned a lot. I didn't get into this hobby to make any money. What I'm doing is selling all my supplies/chemicals/books etc,etc and the seeds are along for the ride. Glad to say that I'm a dedicated grower and not a collector or speculator.
What I'm doing ""might" get $.10 on the $1.00 invested.
I appreciate the comments but to think there is some sort of profit being made here is, well........I'm certainly not going to quite my day job. John
