Care Tips
Pumkins are easily grown and can be kept for a long time over winter. This is possible by letting them ripen fully and then curing them in the sun to allow the skin to harden. They will grow best in a nice sunny site with fertile soil where they have plenty of space in which to grow. They must be well watered, especially as they get bigger.
