Wetsel Seed™ Atlantic Giant Pumpkin Seed
1.7g Packet
This huge variety is frequently a prize winner at county fairs. Carefully grown, fruits can exceed 200 lbs. Fruits are evenly ribbed, medium orange and slightly rough. Fine textured orange flesh is outstanding for pies, cooking, or freezing and the seeds make delicious snacks. Perfect for huge jack-o’-lanterns.
Select a sunny location and plant in the late spring when the soil has warmed. For an earlier crop, start indoors 4-6 weeks before setting out. For best results loosen soil with spade or fork, working in vegetable food and organic matter, and smooth with rake. Firm soil over seed. For maximum size feed monthly, keep soil moist, pinch off all but 1 or 2 pumpkins per vine and leave plenty of space between plants. Cut from vine using a pruning shear, leaving 3 in. of stem.
