Hi all!

Just a reminder that I still have some of my 2004 seeds left to give out...

They are completely dry now, however, right now university keeps me quite busy so that I will probably send out most filled bubble packs during the Christmas vacation in one month.

I have available the following:

801.5 Stelts 97 X self (224kg) limited supply!
801.5 Stelts 97 X 1016 Daletas 01 (214kg) very limited supply!
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) limited supply!

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 October here 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. They should also all have good weight potential!

If you are interested just send me a self addressed bubble pack, include 4$ for return postage and indicate which of them you are interested in.

One thing Martin, is that four dollars American, Canadian, or in German whatever your currency is? Or does it matter? Wow, four dollars for postage! Ah, well, it's worth it, those are awesome genetics there.

If I remember right postage to US / Canada is more than 3 Euro for a bubble from here which means around 4 US $. Yep, postage is pretty expensive over here.

Yes, we pay double the price. If I send a bubble to the States it cost me 3,60 Euro = 4US$. The same bubble from the States to me is stamped with 1,80 US$.
How ´bout greencard? LOL

you hear it, Cameron...

Depending on the size and weight of the bubble pack that I am sending, it costs me between 3 and 4 Euros. One Euro is currently about 1.30 US$. So, postage for me is about 3.90 to 5.20$US.
4$ Canadian are not enough.

When I get seeds from the states the postage the growers pay is usually between 0.80 and 1.80$ but that's the USPS. Things are different over here...

But I can still send you Canadian dollars, do you mind? Or do I have to get four Euro's from the bank in exchange for about close to six Canadian dollars? It would be easier if I could send you the six instead of going to the bank to exchange, but which do you prefer? With seeds like that it's ok to pay a little.

No problem on the Canadian dollars... just send one or two more than you would with the US dollars...
Thanks for your understanding... there is nothing I can do about the postage our postal service charges...
But as you say, I guess the seeds are worth the extra cost!
