Giant Pumpkins - Strizich Edition

We are growing giant pumpkins this summer!  It's been an exciting adventure so far.  We have become connected with a group of giant pumpkin growers in Colorado Springs.  We are linked in a unique way.  One family, I had the privilege of getting to know this year as their son was in my class.  The other is a co-worker of Brian's.  We were invited to this elite group this week and are really excited to begin.  With some really specific instruction from Brian's co-worker and a bit of encouragement from the student in my class we began our adventure this week. Here's our baby pumpkins, germinating under their grow lamps.  In a week we should see little sprouting pumpkin plants!
