Actually received a confirmation from Alainia That the seeds have actually left their hands and have been couriered to my buddy Speedy in Tasmania The single seeds that couldn't be tested are being returned to me LOL some of these seeds have now made 2 full round trips. Very well traveled
Now thanks to SO MANY growers that have donated to the "seeds to Australia Campaign" lol that's what I'm calling it anyway. We are sending down a very diverse range of genetics and seeds. Sad part for me is the 5 1385 H/J 's and the 5 2185's will have to leave my stash. lol

and all the help you have given to us down here, i just hope we can repay you, and the fantastic growers who have organised these seeds for us. one day i hope we have seeds that you would like; there are definitely some good people in the big pumpkin community. regards---Garry.

I am confused on one thing. Do you have to get future seeds you send there tested? Or is the testing done forever?

Eddyz@efirehose.net

Every bunch of seeds needs to be tested
