I am so sorry I am so slow in replying, this week has been a bit, er, intense lol!
When it comes to my seed procurement, I order most of them online. Pinetree seeds, Trueleaf market, Baker Creek heirloom seeds, and Johnny's Seeds have all been utilized by moi. We have a challenging microclimate and short growing season here in North Idaho so I am always on the lookout for a variety that can take the heat, cold, and all out intensity in my realm.
Cherokee Tan sounds super intriguing, I hope you can get ahold of some of them, I would love to read about your experiences with growing them:)
I have grown Jack-O-Lantern too, they are super hardy and easy to grow. I could honestly go on for days about pumpkins because they are something I have had a ton of luck with, but I have to go open the library now, and I promise I won't take five days to reply to you this time:)
