Planting & Care
Sow seeds outdoors after the last frost date, when soil has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C). Plant seeds 1 inch deep in hills or rows, spacing 3–5 feet apart. For earlier starts, begin seeds indoors 2–3 weeks before the last frost and transplant carefully. Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Pumpkins benefit from regular watering, especially during fruit development. Reduce watering as fruits mature to help them harden off. Harvest when the rind is hard and the stem begins to dry, typically before the first heavy frost. Cure pumpkins in a warm, dry spot for a week to improve storage life.
