Product Details:

These pumpkins are not only beautiful but also delicious for culinary purposes. The vines can spread up to 12 feet, making them suitable for large garden spaces or containers.
Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
No special preparation needed; however, soaking seeds overnight can hasten germination.
Sowing:
Plant seeds directly into warm soil after the last frost date, typically in late spring.
Sow seeds 1 inch deep and 2-3 feet apart to allow for vine spread.
Germination:
Keep the soil consistently moist until seeds germinate, usually within 7-10 days.
Provide a warm environment (around 70-85°F) for optimal germination.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves and all danger of frost has passed, thin them to the strongest plants.
If transplanting, handle seedlings carefully to avoid disturbing the roots.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly, aiming for deep watering rather than frequent shallow watering.
Provide support for vines if growing vertically or ensure ample space for sprawling growth.
Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Happy Gardening!
