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.

My mom gave me some seeds to eat from a 50 lb squash - I saved a couple and planted them - one is already at least 20 lbs. But the seeds are DELICIOUS!

I have grown and eaten cushaw pumpkins (not squash) my entire life. It is the best pumpkin pie you will ever make or ever have - no "strings" just beautiful smooth "meat" and no "hay" taste you seem to get with traditional orange pumpkins. You will love it.

I've been growing Cushaw Squash for 12 years. It's delicious and versatile. Cushaw squash is hands down the best keeper I've ever known. I had one that kept for over 22 months and would have kept longer but we cooked it for Thanksgiving pie and soup. Secret is to cure it in the sun for about a week, turning the fruit twice a day till you can't get a thumbnail into the skin. You won't be sorry!!!
