Jos,
surprised I am, having a 200+kg pumpkin, may be two, I start thinking to come to Belgium. It is unfortunately to short term to organize free time and logistics.
With the goal of having at least a 300+kg pumpkins next year, I'll make a try, coming next year to Duisburg and cross over the Waddensea.

Having fantasy about making a serious cross between a seed of one of your nice giants with a seed of Martin's beautiful giant: growing European AG's...
May be you have two excellent seeds for me to make a cross with some American giant?
50 euro is no problem.

By the way, we got a big number of 300+kg seeds from Paul Boonen from Kasterlee, not cheap. But the results were very disapointing: the biggest result: may be 30kg...
That might not have been serious crossing material.
I have been crossing myself this year, but not serious anough yet, it's a learning prosses.

So, I'll get in contact with you for some seeds, if you don't mind.
Kind regards, Theo.

For the price of the stamps and package(say 5 euro) anybody can have any of my seeds.I always send 6 of them.
Pumpkin growing is a hobby for me,and i don't want to make money out of it.Beside i see it as an honour if anybody wants to grow my seeds.
greetings
