This is an ideal multi-use pumpkin – for Jack O’ Lanterns and for eating. Medium orange color, slight suture texture with flesh of pale orange. Grows to 9”-10” (22.5-25 cm) x 7”-10” (17.5-25 cm) diameter, 10-18 lbs. (5-8 kg). Good cooking quality, stores well. Culture: Direct sow seed after soil has warmed, into rich, fertile soil in groups (hills) of 5-8 seeds. Thin to the 2 or 3 strongest plants per group. Water regularly and fertilize when lateral runners begin to spread. Pumpkins are easy to grow and require sufficient space for the vines to spread. Excellent for a child’s garden. Harvest: A full season pumpkin about 100 to 120 days. When skin is hard, cut from the vine with a 3” (7.5 cm) piece of stem attached. Nutrition: Excellent source of vitamin A and potassium.
