Overview

Treasured for their ease of cultivation, high food production, and excellent storage, small sugar pumpkins have been a staple crop in the Americas for millennia. Known for their sweet, orange flesh, they are rich in beta carotene, vitamins C and E, and potassium. These classic, versatile pumpkins are perfect for pies, soups, and roasting, making them a fall favorite for both cooking and decoration.

Conditions

Pumpkins require warm temperatures (above 70°F) before planting. For soil, use a fertile well-draining potting mix that’s tailored for vegetables. Add ample compost or manure, as pumpkins are heavy feeders. For best quality crop, provide full sun (6+ hours of direct sunlight per day). Pumpkins also need ample vining space, so plan accordingly.

Planting

Pumpkins are a warm-weather crop with a long growing season that prefer to be planted directly in the garden. Plant seeds in late spring when the soil is at least 70°F and frost danger has passed. Use our grow calendar tool to find specific planting dates for your region! Seeds germinate in 7-14 days.

Plant 4-6 seeds in groupings 1/2-1" deep spaced 4-6 feet apart. Plant seeds in “pumpkin hills” - slightly raised mounds above the normal garden floor. This helps keep soil temperature warmer. Thin to 1 plant per spacing interval after seedlings are established. 

Care

Pumpkins are heavy feeders. Regular treatments of manure, compost, or fertilizer mixed with water will sustain good growth. Use a high nitrogen formula in early plant growth, and switch to a high phosphorus fertilizer before the blooming period.

Pinch off each vine end after a few pumpkins have formed. This will stop vine growth and encourage fruit growth. As fruits develop, they should be turned (with great care not to hurt the vine or stem) to encourage an even shape.

Pests and Disease

Common cucurbit diseases include powdery mildew, downy mildew, bacterial wilt, and phytophthora. Avoid problems with adequate soil drainage, good air flow, insect pest control, and crop rotation. If necessary, check with your local Cooperative Extension Service agent for specific control options.

Cucumber beetles, squash bugs, and vine borers are all common pests for cucurbits. Protect young plants with floating row covers. Squash bug eggs found on the undersides of leaves may be crushed by hand. For vine borers, cut out of vines and hill soil over the wound. Keep field borders mowed and remove plant refuse in the fall; spring plow to bury pupae. C. moschata types are less susceptible to vine borers. Insecticides (specifically, pyrethrin sprays) may offer some control.

Harvest

Fruits can tolerate 1-2 light frosts, however, temperatures below 28°F/-2°C can damage fruit.
Pumpkins are ripe when rinds have turned orange and hardened, and a “thump” with your finger feels hard and sounds hollow. Harvest by clipping handles close to the vine. Let the pumpkins cure in the sun for a week prior to bringing indoors or transporting.

Amazing chair
Color: Black
Going from a regular office chair to this majestic heavenly office chair, my body hasn't felt better. As a person who is rather on the large side (6'2, 175 pounds), so this chair good butt cushioning, adjustable armrest, the adjustable headrest made this purchase an very good one. I move constantly on chairs so when i found out tthis chair can adapt to my position with a few tweaks i instantly fell in love. Considering that I have jumped and stood on the chair quite the number of times and it still is holding its form just speaks to its sturdiness. I dont believe in buying extremely expensive chairs as a high quality one like this has everything you could wish for.

Wow Great Deal!
Color: Black
I have been using this chair for a month now and I am honestly impressed for the price I paid. I work from home so am using this chair 24/7. I had no issues with assembling it myself as a 35 year old female. Instructions were simple to follow and took me maybe 30 minutes to put together. Its sturdy and comfortable. I appreciate the padded arms and the seat bottom is also a nice thick cushion. Added bonus for the head rest and that it is adjustable. Definitely recommend.

Good quality and arrived quickly
Color: Black
I was very pleased with how easy this chair was to set up. Affordable, arrived quickly. The only reason it isn’t 5/5 is because on of the arms had a small dent, possibly due to not enough bubble wrap during shipping. Other than that, the quality is great.

Awesome chair so far
Color: Black
My old chair can go in the trash immediately because it set the bar so low (picked up from a giveaway - squeaked anytime it's leaned on, always sinking upon sitting on it). This Ergonomic chair blew it out of the water. Happy with this purchase. This chair took me an hour to assemble, which I expected. It feels extremely sturdy and comfortable. Lumbar support feels great! I love the various adjustability options this chair offers. Hope it lasts for many years. By the way, I am 175 lbs, 5'10".
