I'd like to play too. Suspect it will have to be for prettiest rather than largest.

You may be pleased to know, Totty, that both of yours are now well up. The ones from T & M (admittedly last year's seed) are a no-show.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

That is good to know. I've got three and they are growing rapidly now. I hope they do as well for you as the Kent blues and salmon crowns are for me. ;)

Can you add me to the list please? I've had rubbish pumpkins the last couple of years - but hopefully this year will be better!

My maths shows that bird is equal to or greater than the word...

Okay.......I'm in.

Edited 24th May.

I have sowed 5 Pumpkin seeds & only 1 has germinated, would like to have 2 or 3 plants to select from for putting into the ground but looks like all my Eggs (Pumpkins) will be in 1 basket.
