where do you get pumpkin seeds? What time of the year do you plant them?

Answer 1

Just buy a pumpkin. Let it rot somewhat and plant the pumpkin and seeds in the ground.

Answer 2

you c an find pumpkin seed at just about anyseed store in the spring. you plant pumpkins as soon as all danger of frost has passed in your area. allow them plenty of room to run. each plant will spread out about 20 feet in either direction. there are several type of pumpkins be sure to buy the type to suit your need.

Answer 3

Planting time is printed on the back of the packet which you can buy at any garden shop just look for your region on the package.Leave lots of room for them to grow 20 to 30 feet and when they flower and each flower only opens once early in the morning take a Qtip and roll it around each and ever flower that is open to transfer the pollen from one to the other to increase your chances of getting a punkin. Go back and forth to make sure you get them all. The reason for this is you cant allways count on bees to do this for you. Also there are male and female flowers on the same plant but to hard to discibe so just hit them and good luck. Bye the way in st. louis the planting time is June 12

It's best not to plant pumpkin seeds, as the plants grow far too large (fast, too), and will completely take over any other nearby plants.

Answer 7

Like others when we carve pumkins we save the seeds. I squeese the pumkin guts in my hand and the seeds push out. I put them on a cookie sheet and spread them out to dry. Store in a ziplock bag , but dont zip it shut or seeds will mold. Now I also buy pumkins seeds on ebay for those giant pumkins . Suppose to grow to 500 pounds. I havent tryed them yet but will next april or may. Good luck

This year when you carve your Halloween pumpkin, save the goop out of it. Seeds are in there.Rinse them off, dry them, store them in a cool dry place til next spring. Apr/May.

Answer 9

you can get them anywhere that sells plants or seeds. we have somr that come up voluntarily every year just from cleaning a pumpkin outside. we have three pumkins this year.just throw them where you want them to grow. and i believe anytime would be fine.some might disagree with me on that .

Answer 10
