I planted pumpkin seeds a few weeks back but they never sprouted so I thought they were inviable. However, today I checked and the pumpkin seeds had actually sprouted and are now 6-inch tall plants. I don't need them anymore, however, so I dug them out of the ground and put them in pots so that I could give them to my friends and neighbors. I hope they get a bountiful harvest of pumpkins!
