I went here yesterday and they have a replica of a Lake County winner in Illinois from a 1998 weighoff. They are also attempting to grow a "Dill's Atlantic Giant". I don't know where they got the seeds but the 2 plants they have are SMALL. I mean the vines are only about 4 ft. long. The leaves aren't of good size either. It looks more like the size of the cucumber leaves, maybe bigger. Hmmmm. Wonder what will come of them. I didn't notice any set fruit on them yet.

Jeez, and I almost applied for an internship there. I would have set them straight and gotten them some REAL AG's!
