Growing Pumpkins
When to Plant Pumpkins - Warm weather crop in Zone 4, May 25 to June 10thHow to Plant Pumpkins - There are varieties that stay
smaller. This is great for small gardens. There are bush varieties also. Most pumpkins vine all over the garden. After Planting Pumpkins - When you get 3 or 4 pumpkin sets pinch off the end of
the vine. This will give the plant more energy to make the product. Try to have a good wind sweep over the plants, helps to ensure pollination. Harvesting Pumpkins - When pumpkins are orange
and the shells hard, cut off vine. Store the pumpkins in the garage if you are not ready to carve them. This works for gourds also. |
