Champion0607 off to a strong start!

Tonight the Wilsons set up the germination box and planted 4 purchased seeds and 10 or so seeds from Wilson 07 293lb. Since the Wilson 07 293 seeds were not very well cared for, and had a little exterior mold, we're not expecting much from those. But the new Wilson line of 500lb+ seeds will be available in November 08.

Here's a picture of the "pot tags" we created so we don't forget which pot contains which pumpkin.
Here's a shot of the interior of the "germination box". A total of 8 pots. Depending on germination success, I could have a few choice plants for the highest bidder...
Here's a shot of the germination box with the exterior lights used for heat. We don't have a thermometer, so I've got to pick one up tomorrow. Don't want those babies to get too hot or too cold.
