Planting Information:

When and Where to Plant: Select a sunny location and plant in the late spring when the soil has warmed. For an earlier crop, start indoors 4-6 weeks before setting out. For best results loosen soil with spade or fork, working in vegetable food and organic matter, and smooth with rake. Firm soil over seed.
Care: For maximum size feed monthly, keep soil moist, pinch off all but 1 or 2 pumpkins per vine and leave plenty of space between plants.
Harvesting: Cut from vine using a pruning shear, leaving 3 in. of stem.
