"See this? Watch our for THIS!" was a comment from a dear Uncle or my Grandfather, I forget which - I had to be about 6 at the time, lol. Something involving fists, lol. So, keep an eye on yer Lowe's versus your Gurney's and try to not worry in either direction, as plenty of times unseen by me, a scraggly, floppy seedling or sprout might be the top contender by whenever evaluated again. I had that happen last year on my 300-pounder that was the best-looking one of all in '25. It wasn't meant to be the biggest, so, all went well. Also, yours look great! I wanna see the Lowe's, though! Can I? Can I? Ha ha. Additionally, although the seeds are Atlantic Giant in heritage, they are most-likely open-pollinated and my chronic belief is that seeds are the first thing to show that a crossing has occurred by their shape, color and texture, like colored corn or a baby's skin color. No worries as to need to buy one brand or the other, as by next year, you'll be swimming in AG seeds from the BP.c crew! Later---eric g

Haha I'm watching the Lowes seeds closely! I'm giving both hills the same treatment so I don't accidentally mess up what could be the best plant. I'll make sure to post pics of the Lowes hill, it's really fascinating how much this little dilapidated one is trying to hang on haha
