Organic Pumpkin Seeds for Gardening

When to Plant Pumpkins: Outdoor planting should only occur after the soil has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C) and the risk of frost has passed. Pumpkins require a lengthy growing season, so depending on the climate, this may be around late spring or early summer. For an earlier start, particularly in cooler regions, seeds can be sown indoors 3-4 weeks before the last expected frost and then transplanted outdoors once temperatures are consistently warm.

Planting Conditions: Pumpkins thrive in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. They prefer fertile, well-draining soil rich in organic matter. If necessary, amend the soil with compost. Pumpkin vines can spread extensively, so ensure ample space is provided or consider training them to grow vertically on a trellis.

Planting Instructions: To prepare the planting area, create small mounds of soil spaced 3-5 feet apart. This aids drainage and helps the soil warm up faster. For direct sowing, plant 2-3 seeds per mound, about 1 inch deep, and water gently and thoroughly. When starting seeds indoors, use peat pots or plantable containers to minimize transplant shock. Plant 2-3 seeds per pot, about 1 inch deep, and place them in a warm, sunny location, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Pumpkin seeds typically germinate within 5-10 days in warm soil.
