The golden to orange colored flesh is nutty, sweet, and stringless. 6–12 pound fruits with long storage capability.

Growing Info

Harvesting: Harvest pumpkins before the first fall frost, and when foliage has begun to dry out. Cut stem with a knife, leaving 3"–4" of stem on the pumpkin. Do not hold the pumpkin by the stem; if stem attachment gets broken, or any part of the pumpkin bruises, the pumpkin may rot. Brush off any dirt or leaves. Ideally, cure at 80°-85°F and 80–85% humidity or a warm, sunny spot with good air circulation for 1 to 2 weeks before eating or storage. Do not allow harvested fruit to get wet.

    I love this pumpkin! Its very easy to grow and super prolific too. I have probably 30 of these pumpkins to harvest. I used one recently to make Dulces De Calabaza a Mexican Pumpkin Candy made with Pilloncillo Sugar, Cinnamon and Cloves and it came out great! It has thick, sweet, smooth flesh and cooks well. I will grow this one again!

    I planted 4 seeds in potting soil around August13th. Only 2 seeds sprouted in less than a week indoors under a grow light. They were moved outside for another week. In the photo you’ll see 2 plants last week. Today the leaves have doubled and there are blossoms. I’ve sprayed with seven to ward off borers. Fingers crossed.
