Planting & Growing Instructions:

When to Plant:

  • Plant seeds outdoors after the last frost in spring, once the soil has warmed up.
  • Can be started indoors 2-3 weeks before the last frost and transplanted once the weather has warmed.

Planting Outdoors:

  • Direct sow seeds 1–1½ inches deep in fertile, well-draining soil.
  • Space plants 18–24 inches apart to allow for adequate growth and air circulation.

Soil & Sun:

  • Prefers nutrient-rich, well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0–7.5.
  • Requires full sun to thrive, ensuring optimal growth and fruit development.

Watering & Care:

  • Keep soil consistently moist, especially during fruit set and growing periods.
  • Water deeply but avoid waterlogging the soil, as this can lead to root rot.
  • Mulch around plants to maintain moisture levels and reduce weed growth.

Succession Planting:

  • For a longer harvest, plant new seeds every 2–3 weeks throughout the growing season.

Harvesting Tips:

  • When to Harvest: Harvest when the pumpkins turn deep orange and the rind is firm, usually around 85–100 days after planting.
  • Storage: Cure pumpkins in a warm, dry area for 10–14 days to harden the skin, then store in a cool, dry place for up to 2–3 months.
