PUMPKIN 6 PACK

Care Tips:

Water: Water deeply and consistently at the base of the plant, particularly during flowering and fruit development. Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid wetting the foliage excessively or leaving the roots waterlogged.

Sunlight: Pumpkins need full sun and a warm, sheltered position. Allow plenty of room for the vigorous trailing vines to spread across the ground.

Feeding: Apply a balanced vegetable fertiliser when planting, then feed regularly once flowering and fruit production begin. A nutrient-rich soil will encourage strong vines and larger fruits.

Maintenance: Guide vines away from paths and other crops as they spread. Once fruits develop, place them on a piece of board, straw, or another dry surface to keep them off damp soil and reduce the risk of rotting.

Harvesting: Allow pumpkins to mature fully on the plant. They are generally ready when the skin has developed its mature colour, the fruit feels firm, and the stem begins to dry and harden. Cut the pumpkin from the vine, leaving a short section of stem attached.

Frost: Pumpkins are frost-sensitive. Plant outdoors only after the danger of frost has passed and temperatures are reliably warm. Protect young plants from cold nights.
