i have learned, through hillbilly zen, to work with nature rather than against it.

With that in mind and looking at your patch, i think maybe you should build sand castles rather than grow pumpkins LOL.

Thanks for the offer waterboy, but I'm all sorted. I just purchased 25 from ebay, so if anybody needs some let me know. Happy to spread the love!

PM me BigRed if you want a few more seeds to play with.

Hopefully they arrive before the 1st!

Anybody after some seed pm me, I'll send ALL seed out on tue, just pm me ur address do t want nothin in return got heaps that will go to waste otherwise. I admit my soil is shithouse- just broken down granite really with a splashing of red soil, but have got a whole feedlot worth of cowshit to mix into it. I can't post a pic here maybe hb or Ceres can copy paste in from facie.

I'm still giving myself a good chance, as long as I beat hillbilly I don't care.

Might order in some worms to go with all the shite and hay. I have anodynes mycelial juice stuff??? As well. I Am very much offended at being called a pumpkinpinhead so I will add your sheep lovin ass to my must be beatens.

Aww :( thort i was being helpful so i could sneak that one in and you wouldnt notice.. I was going to write pumpking patch i swear.

I'm sure it will be sweet as with copious amounts of poop and hay. Consider it like a no-dig garden and just add as much organic matter as you can gather.

Bro in law just got off to phone to the feedlot a case of xxxx gold (u would bot believe what a case of xxxx gold will get you our here) will get me a trailer of broken down cow shit. Dad has these hay bale feeder thingys in his paddock which spills hay out on the ground that the sheep trample on and poo and pee all over when they are feeding I'm gonna get that tomorrow as well as rotary how in some bags of blood and bone and dynamic lifter. That's the plan it aint easy to have a Full time job and be a pumpkins farmer as well!!!

Working full time moving into a new house AND growing in granite and I'm still gonna kick all your asses this will certainly be a sweet victory. Feeling confident :)

Ps

Is Melissa king still with gardening Australia ? I would loved to have planted her carrots!!

Pumpking (notice spelling) contest terms and conditions!

1) no breaking any state or federal laws, but all other pumpkin dopeing, genetic modification, steroids, radioactive laser beams, harrp machines, fetilisers, etc. etc, is ok

2) seeds must be sewed 1st september or later, no soaking before this time.

3) you must grow the pumpkin, not your mum, dad, uncle bob etc,

4) to have a valid entry, you must post picture updates.

It is may the best grower win indeed Bigred. I can tell already you're going to be a fearsome competitor.
