I'm out in Vancouver BC and I'm looking for just regular bushel gourd seeds for grafting. Nothing fancy like the giant competition genetics. If anyone has some available please let me know. Thanks.

I'd like to politely recommend that you also post this in 'Seed Exchange' for greater and longer-term exposure. There'll be tons of views there, being 'Seed Search Season' and in a day or two, 'here' will likely be 'glossed-over'. I wish you good luck in your quest---Eric Gerry

I definitely have some from our smaller fruits throughout the years. I just send seeds to Saskatchewan for like 5 bucks, so I could definitely mail you some, but there may be others in BC who have some closer.

Pumpkinpal2: I'll definitely try posting there, thank you.
NDV: So far I have been posting on other sites and haven't been able to connect with anyone. I don't mind paying, I just need a bunch to start learning how to graft but so far I've found that seeds are not as easy to acquire. It would be great if I can purchase some from you.

Check out the GVGO silent auction on this site in the Messageboard. Lot 14 and 16 have some pretty impressive bushel gourd seeds. They are premium giant bushel gourd seeds, not regular.

Thanks, do these auctions happen once or multiple times a year?

Auctions are just winter, but for grafting, I wouldn't worry too much about premium genetics. Shoot me an email (it's in my profile) and i can try to get you seeds. Just gotta make sure I get germination. Im doing my first round of grafts soon, so I can send some in a week maybe, just let me wait to see if I can germinate the seeds first
