These beautifully shaped, bright orange pumpkins have strong, dark green handles and make perfect Jack-O-Lanterns. Plant Neon pumpkin seeds for productive, semi-bush plants that take up less space in the garden or field, and produces higher yields per acre if grown commercially. The uniform fruits average 3kg (7-8 lbs). If grown in a cool summer, fruit may be faintly bi-coloured when immature. By harvest time they become the normal golden colour as shown. Pumpkins thrive in any region with hot summers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 414.087px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLatin Name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCucurbita maxima \u0026amp; C. pepo.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eEasy, but these big plants require lots of room.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Sprout\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e7-14 Days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Mature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e70 Days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e80%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 100.564px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 100.564px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStarting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 100.564px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSow seeds 2cm (1″) deep.

These big plants need lots of food. Choose a sunny spot with fertile, well-draining soil. Dig in a generous quantity of finished compost and\/or composted manure. Dig in 1 cup of complete organic fertilizer under each plant. All pumpkins grow male flowers first, then the female flowers are produced. The female flowers have tiny fruits at the base of the petals and require pollination by bees, mostly. Incomplete pollination is common at the beginning of the season, and results in small fruits that are misshapen at the flower end. Discard these damaged fruits before they rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the largest pumpkins, feed weekly throughout the growing season with fish or kelp based fertilizer. Keep the huge plants well watered, particularly in hot weather. Always water the soil, and avoid any form of overhead watering other than rain. Fruit will grow larger if you keep only one fruit per vine. As the fruit develops, try to gently encourage it to grow at a 90° angle to the vine itself. The largest pumpkin varieties will grow on their sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBright orange with strong handles\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFruits average 3kg (7-8 lbs)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMakes perfect jack-o-lanterns\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHybrid seeds\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Coast Seeds","offers":[{"title":"2g (~14 Seeds)","offer_id":48561775083744,"sku":"PU670A","price":4.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0502\/3340\/9702\/files\/PU670-2_x640_crop_center_100e63ea-c0b5-490e-a7ce-056a5a75dabc.webp?v=1768697025","url":"https:\/\/urban-grow.ca\/zh\/products\/west-coast-seeds-neon-f1-pumpkin","provider":"Urban Grow Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
