I grow lots of pumpkins and gourds. Pumpkins are pretty easy to sprout. If you start them off indoor be careful not to disturb the roots much when transplanting. I have always just planted straight to the hill after the last threat of frost. Here that is just after mothers day ( I will be busy planting soon) I like to grow the Magic lantern and the Howden biggie. I usually harvest @ 5 acres in pumpkins each year

GOOD LUCK GROWING
Ed

I love pumpkins so will be waiting for an update!! Our neighbors have an entire pumpkin patch on their side yard (and it's amazing how big they get to be)
