Is Blue Pumpkin only wholesale? Couldn’t tell from their site and FAQ. Thanks for the info on the varieties you are growing.

I love pumpkins so much! I grew them for the 1st time and got squash bugs like crazy. They were a lot of work! Now i know why they are so expensive!

We can't wait to see all your pumpkins! The Snowball pumpkin was our most productive as well. 🌱🎃

Thank you for the information about the Blue Pumpkin company. I love to grow pumpkins so glad to find a source with some great unique sizes, shapes and colors. Do you price your pumpkins by the pound? I don't sell at a farmer's market but in the event I grow enough to sell to others, would like to know how to price them. Thank you!

No, I just priced by variety and size. Mini pumpkins were 2 for $3. Others were by size or variety

Your Youtue channel is one of my very favorites. I like your format and the way you describe your choices and results. Thank you I've used a lot of your information to make choices in my small garden.

And it's good to know that I am not the only one that has lambsquarters growing all over the place 😂

Here in England pumpkins are a relatively new for Halloween and generally large orange ! Are all of these ornamental or edible? Great variety didn’t realise there were so many interesting varieties. 🎃🎃

In your zone what would you say is the very latest date you can plant pumpkins?

@SunshineFlora 3 ай бұрын

I allow 120 days for pumpkins so mid June is the absolute latest I have ever planted them. Otherwise I don’t get much produce. End of May is much better. If you still want to plant anything, go with small or mini varieties for sure

I thought Biotone (granules) was for seedlings, not seeds?

@SunshineFlora 3 ай бұрын

I’ve always used it for my pumpkins

@cynthiaroberts9639 3 ай бұрын

Do you get any pest pressure on your pumpkins? And if so do you use any prevention methods?

@SunshineFlora 3 ай бұрын

Fortunately no

from the 5 seeds that you plant per hole how many do you thin out?

@SunshineFlora 3 ай бұрын

I take it back to 3 usually.

Great use of your space to trellis the vines. Incredible variety of small pumpkins, it’s not such a thing here in Australia, perhaps that will change.
