Growing the Seminole Pumpkin

Planting Instructions Start seeds in a small container. Wait for the seeds to sprout a develop a couple of leaves.  Prepare the ground by creating a mound of blended dirt. Blend everything from compost to worm castings, peat to rich black dirt. The mound’s height needs to be at least one foot tall, cover it with a layer of dead leaves or dead grass. Keep it mulched.  Transplant starter from the starter pot to the top of the mound. Vines will grow “up and over”, down the sides of the mound. Vines will radiate in all directions, direct and trim the vines to prevent growth into unwanted areas of the yard. Make sure that the Seminole Pumpkin is watered well. The vine will grow quickly during Florida’s Summer Rainy Season.Start seeds and Transplant to the ground March (Mid Month) to June. Harvest in the Fall. Plant on the schedule of a vining pumpkin, anywhere else in the country.
