Hi I am Flash 33. __I live__ in the apartment **across** the street from the Gibb Street Garden. I keep seeing people walk in and out of the Gibb Street Garden. __I asked__ a young man named Curtis **what** the people were doing in the Garden. He said they grow all sorts of crops like tomatoes, lettuce, and **even** radishes. He said __I can__ join if __I wanted__ to. __I said I would__ love to join. He asked me what __I **was** going__ to plant and I said pumpkins. He asked me why and __I said I am__ not allowed to get pumpkins before Halloween arrives. So the next day __I **went**__ to the farmer's m arket and asked the young man for some pumpkin seeds. He gave them to me for a whopping $2.50. __I **went**__ back to the Garden and **marked** my territory off and then I started planting. __I planted 10__ of **the** 15 seeds. Then I **watered** the seeds non-stop for the next two weeks. Then __I did not__ water for as long. The next thing I knew was that I had 10 beautiful, huge pumpkins. They **were** the size of a garbage truck and they weighed a whopping 30 pounds each. I put the pumpkins in __my metal-destroyed__ wheel barrow one by one. Then I rolled them to the street and started selling them. They sold as fast as a car going 100 miles per hour. But __I was sad__ they all went because I did not save one for my family and me. I was so focused on selling and making money __I totally forgot__ the reason __I **planted**__ them. But now __I will have__ to wait until next fall to plant 10 more pumpkin seeds that will grow to be 30 pounds. Next year __I am going__ to save all, and I mean all, the pumpkins for my family and me. __I was very happy__ with my crop this year but next year __I hope__ they will be **even** better.
