thanks to everyone who asked for pumpkin seeds.ive just posted the 2nd batch this afternoon,so you should all have them in a day or two (mmm royal mail).i would be looking at a sowing time of the 1st week of may undercover.a little tip to get them started is to lightly file the sides a nailfile is ideal, until you see a whiteish line appear,dont file the narrow ends at all.then soak them for 8 hrs in a dilute solution of maxicrop and warm water.once sown at 85f you should have them through in 2-3 days although some may take a while longer.you can of course just plant them straight up into some good quality FRESH seed compost.good luck to everyone e-mail me if you have any problems,peter :D
