How do you grow pumpkins?

Sow warm under glass at the end of April/beginning of May, do not water too much during germination. Watch out for mice, they love pumpkin seeds. Once the seeds have germinated, this is no longer a problem. Plant out after approx. 3 weeks, 1 plant per 2 m².

You can sow on site in May, provided it is warm enough to ensure a smooth germination. Sow 2 seeds per sowing spot, 3 to 4 cm deep. Leave one plant after emergence. Mice can also throw a spanner in the works outside. You can take preventive action by placing a flower pot upside down on the sowing spot immediately after sowing.

Remove the pots after a week! Pumpkins can tend to grow considerably, so regularly replace the tendrils on the outside of the field. Pumpkins can be harvested from mid-September; bring the pumpkins inside at least before cold nights to prevent night frost damage. Harvest only sufficiently ripe fruit; the fruit stems should be discolored and somewhat wrinkly/corky. Store in a dry place at not too low temperatures.
