Summary: Mine weren't giant
Comment: I don't think our pumpkins turned out according to the claim of a Giant Pumpkin, but it may not have been the fault of seeds, I think we didn't provide them enough soil. Very quick delivery and worth a try!

Summary: Pumpkins Seeds Purchased and Planted - we'll see in 2008
Comment: I purchased these 15 Dills Atlantic Giant Seeds for my 3 yr. old nephew to plant along with his giant sunflowers. We live in OK - growing region 6. 15 seeds arrived promptly and were planted in the correct sign or phase of the moon according to The Farmers Almanac. I'm expecting 15 pumpkin vines to produce at least 15 pumpkins. Hirt's will hear from me if I'm not satisfied.
I gave them 4 stars for prompt delivery and careful packaging. Hirt's has a fairly negative customer review at one particular garden website - http://davesgarden.com/products/gwd/c/554/ but those comments tend to be ebay purchases.
I'll reserve my opinion for "proof is in the pumpkin" till this fall. Hopefully I can report about large orange pumpkins with a 3 year old atop one.

Summary: Giant Pumpkin Self-Contest
Comment: The Hirt's seeds came really fast - in 4 days - and they were in a bubble-wrap envelope so no broken seeds. This matters since it's a small quantity. Germination rate is unknown. Another star if it's high. We are hoping only for a big pumpkins, so we're not going to great lengths to get a prize-winner. Who counts out 15 seeds, I wonder? One guy we talked to said the Atlantic Giant pumpkin can grow 25 lbs per day! OMG!

Congratulations to Joe Jutras of Rhode Island on a New Historic World Record at 1689 lbs. Also, big kudos to Don Young of Iowa for growing the second heaviest pumpkin in 2007 at 1662 lbs. and Dan & Jason McKie of New York at 1631.5 lbs.
The grand-daddy of all giant pumpkins. The present day record for this amazing variety is now over 1600 lbs. and produces 400-500 pound fruit consistently with proper growing procedures. The only one to grow for giant pumpkin contests and international competitions. Perfect for huge jack o'lanterns and fall displays. Fruit color vary from yellow to orange. Top quality hand selected seed(non-treated). Fruit is round to flattened round, ribbed, with striking bright orange color. Seed cavity is small. Flesh is meaty, makes great pies!
