Plant seeds 1 inch deep in hills or rows, spacing 24–36 inches apart. For earlier harvests, start seeds indoors 2–3 weeks before the last frost in biodegradable pots to avoid root disturbance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, especially during flowering and fruit development. Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Feed with a balanced fertilizer according to package directions. Harvest when the rind is hard and the stem begins to dry; cure in a warm, dry place for 7–10 days to improve storage life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Sugar Pie Pumpkin Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795585990966,"sku":"FOLIA2-599","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7161326897_mrj5.jpg?v=1792671781","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-sugar-pie-pumpkin-seeds-heirloom-sweet-baking-variety","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
