I actually already gave my 2145 away to Chris, LL and Joe for the club to grow and make some awesome crosses with. I figured that was the best idea :) I will give my 1781 to LL to have and keep the 2624 for now ;)

Tanner if memory serves my right (and that is debatable)I sent about 20 seeds to one of the younger Gertens so he could have a pumpkin growing contest with his friends.

Back 15 years I was a Master Gardener for the St. of MN and we had the opportunity to tour a large orchid facility. The big news that day was they just received a new orchid they purchased for $25,000 and I remembering thinking why am I growing pumpkins.

Bill that place is Orchids Limited ;) great friends of mine!

I heard the owner of Gertens is into big pumpkins so maybe I can grow one in the BIG green house some day!!

Hi Tanner, I can relate to you, I remember going through the same thing after I finished college. It was strange not having a garden for a couple of years.
You will be back, once you get settled in with things. Congratulations on your impending graduation and future job.
