Oh Man! That's just massive! It's going to take a week to pick a seed lot that I want the most. You Southern growers don't do things small huh?

Commack, NY

are the lots "winner take all" or are they split up? for instance, the winner of lot 1......will they receive both the 1260 and the 580? or will two growers win, one of them getting the 1260, and the other getting the 580?

Whomever wins a lot, wins all the seed listed in that lot. There are many seeds in quite a few lots and my goal was to provide a fair equity of seed, for fair compensation. Depending on which lot you may decide to purchase chances for, you could receive 8, 10, 16, or 20 seed!

This raffle has been given the blessings of the Dill's, and is to raise funds for the first sanctioned and officially sponsored weigh-off in the South, as well as to support the organizational costs of our group. My goal is to be able to contribute $1000 or better in weigh-off prize money for a Southern event, aside from what sponsors may provide. Maureen Dill has been instrumental in assisting my re-organization of the SPGA and I will be pursuing this first true Southern weigh-off in Boone, NC as Spring arrives.
Please visit www.southernpumpkins.com and help support the SPGA and it's goal of establishing not only a solid growers organization in the South, but a sanctioned weigh-off as well. Thank you for your support and patronage.

Don't forget about the General raffle as well!
Look closely at the list of 240 seed, and you'll see there are some absolutely great genetics in the bunch, and quite a few proven seed as well. I personally went through over 800 seed to create the lots and general list, and do have a keen eye for seed...if I do say so myself :0)
Please remember that whether you win a lot or not, I stand by my committment, as stated on the website, that every grower that enters the raffle will receive 3, and I hope to be able to provide 4, high quality genetic seed crosses. Not one person who participates in the raffle will go away empty-handed, or dissapointed...that is my promise to you!

Oh, and Kitser/James...Brian Reid and Frank Edwards are due all the credit for the website. Frank did all the graphics, and Brian built the site. None of this would be possible without those two...I am eternally grateful and indebted.

Nothing like starting out with a bang. That's an unprecedented amount of seeds!!! And timing is everything. This "SuperRaffle" should give the SPGA a nice boost going into Niagara...
Great work, Kyle...
