How to Germinate Pumpkin Spooky

How to Germinate Pumpkin Spooky (Cucurbita pepo)
  • Sow Spooky pumpkin seeds directly outdoors in late spring when the soil has warmed to at least 70°F (21°C).
  • If starting indoors, plant seeds 2-4 weeks before the last expected frost date in individual pots.
  • Plant seeds 1 inch deep in well-draining soil, spacing them 3-4 feet apart in rows that are 6-8 feet apart.
  • Maintain a soil temperature of 70-90°F (21-32°C) for optimal germination, which typically takes 7-10 days.
  • Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging during the germination period.
  • Once seedlings have 2-3 true leaves, thin them to the healthiest plants to allow ample space for growth.

Additional Tips
  • Pumpkin Spooky prefers full sun and rich, well-draining soil. Amend the soil with compost or organic matter before planting for best results.
  • Water regularly, ensuring the soil remains evenly moist, particularly during flowering and fruit development. Avoid watering the foliage to reduce disease risk.
  • Apply mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and control weed growth.
  • Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer when the vines start to grow, and switch to a high-potassium fertilizer once fruit begins to develop.
  • Harvest pumpkins when they have fully matured and the skin is hard. Cut the stem with a sharp knife, leaving a few inches of stem attached to prolong storage.
