pap is a real asset here thats for sure. I know I'm grateful for his willingness to share his wisdom. I would add iceman and biz for entertainment value if they could get through it without killing each other,lol

Don Langevin should write the book with professional advice from Ron & Dick. And JoeJ and the many other heavy hitters out there !

Whoever writes the book, should consider illustrating it with some of Pap's pumpkin cartoons.

I'm going to write a book on how not to grow giant pumpkins. Maybe I'll call it "Frontyard Dwarfs". . . have a photo of a red wagon with pumpkin in it going down the driveway. .

I think it should be done by alot of heavy hitters, kind of A-Z about everything, interviews of past and present heavy hitters, storys good and bad from these people, I'm sure Howard Dill has alot of storys and some of the older more expeirenced growers.

If you read over HTG III it does have lots of information from the growers. Each grower featured gives a little secret to their success. I try to skim it onece a week or so and am impressed by what I find that I never did.
