My oldest son Kael (5th grader) is completing a project for the school district's science fair. He decided to test the effect of temperature, sanding and soaking on the time it takes giant pumpkin seeds to germinate. We are hoping that the great growers here a BP would take a couple minutes to complete a survey so that more background information can be gathered. He is a bit short on time, so we need your help fast.

Kael has completed his study using 40 seeds from his 2008 505 lb pumpkin. He had 100% germination and some interesting findings. We will publish the results of both the study and survey in a week or two. Can you please help by completing the survey!? The survey is at:

Thanks so much for your help!

Done - as a former Science teacher, I think this is a great experiment and certainly increases the family bond.
