Be the first to review this product

120 days. Cucurbita moschata. Open Pollinated. Connecticut Field Pumpkin Seeds. The plant produces good yields of 15 to 25 lb deep orange-yellow pumpkins. A popular pumpkin variety prized for its reliable, historic, archetypal “field pumpkin” look most people picture for Halloween. It is the original Halloween pumpkin. Excellent for making pumpkin pie. Its flesh is thick and mildly sweet. Great for pies, purées, canning, and frying. Seeds are good for roasting. It is one of the oldest documented varieties still widely grown. It dates to pre-Colonial times, when Native Americans in the Northeast grew it, and early New England settlers adopted it before 1700. The name comes from traditional interplanting in cornfields (“field” pumpkins) in the Connecticut region. An excellent choice for home gardens and Farmer’s Markets.

Pumpkin Planting Information:

Choose the sunniest and largest area in your garden. Plant 5 to 7 seeds outdoors in hills. Planting should be in early spring to mid-summer, 3 weeks after the last frost, and when the soil has warmed up to at least 70 F. Plants grow 2 ft tall and vines spread up to 10 ft.

Soil Requirements:

Requires fertile, slightly acidic soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant. Add well-composted manure.

Water Requirements:

Keep soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water well during dry and hot spells.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer every two weeks.

Harvest Tips:

Protect ripening pumpkins from damp ground by placing them on boards. Cut pumpkins carefully from the plants to prevent damaging the vines.
