Default Pumpkin Plants (Conneticut Field) free (collection only) in Manchester/Cheshire area

Hi guys!

We had an accidental pumpkin germination in November, and although we grew on a few we discarded the rest of the seeds into a bed at the side of the house, not expecting anything from them!

Well, there are now 43 healthy seedlings (at the 2 leaf stage) in the bed at the side of the house, free to any good homes, all you need do is let us know, bring a pot and we'll let you have them for free, as many as you want!!

Please help us find good homes for them, they sooo want to grow!

Sorry, but they arent really suitable for posting, but if you want to come and collect, then you'd be welcome!

Hi Mrsc2b, you'd be welcome to come and collect some, we'll keep 5 or so ourselves, and will let anyone else who wants any have a few, but the rest are yours if you want them! Lets give others a day or so to reply, and if there isnt anyone else who wants any, then we'll arrange when you can come and get them!

Pumpkins for work? Is that for fellow employees, or are you a teacher with a class project in mind? I'm intrigued!

darn it! we're going to florida on thursday, and are leaving from manchester airport! I was going to suggest that we could pick them up on our way home, in 2 weeks, but dad won't let me ah well - make sure they go to a good home! II'd hate to see and kind of cucurbit go to waste!

Take care

Pete
