My name is Dustin Brown and i live in Britton MI. I tried growing Giants last year and i skipped it this year because i was playing varsity football and didnt have a lot of time. But next year i will be starting up again and i was wondering if anyone had any good seeds that they would like to send me to help me get back on my pumpking growing feet! so anyways if you do i would really appreciate it. so if you could just email me at Dustin_Brown_63@hotmail.com that would be really cool. Thanks a lot guys, you are my hero's!!!!!

Are you interested in any of my crosses?

801.5 Stelts 97 X self (224kg)
801.5 Stelts 97 X 1016 Daletas 01 (214kg)
783 Daletas 00 X 801.5 Stelts 97 (182kg)
582 Hester 01 X 801.5 Stelts 97 (151kg)
845 Bobier 00 X 801.5 Stelts 97 (141.5kg)
810 Dill 99 X 1016 Daletas 01 (122kg)
1016 Daletas 01 X 801.5 Stelts 97 (100kg)
810 Dill 99 X 801.5 Stelts 97 (small)

It should be mentioned to newer growers that seeds from smaller fruits theoretically have the same potential as seeds from the 1000/+lbs pumpkins. The only thing that counts is the cross!

Pictures of all pumpkins can be found in my diary entries from the last two to three weeks on Bigpumpkins.com.
All were an awesome orange color and should even improve with the crosses I made. The only one that was not as deeply orange was the fruit on the 1016 Daletas as the vine rotted off and the pumpkin wasn't able to mature and orange up.

Best wishes,
Martin
