Growing plants from pumpkin seeds
Pumpkins and squash are easy to plant and grow from seed, they are rewarding and with many varieties, you can grow some great tasting ones. Seeds germinate easily and we show you how to speed up germination as well.
You may aslo be interested in how to pollinate pumpkins by hand - see the video • How to Pollinate Pumpk...
A Quick Note on Fertiliser for Pumpkins
• It is actually best to fertilise with high nitrogen fertilisers before planting.
• After the vines develop, and before flowering, keep away from high nitrogen
fertilisers as this can cause the female flowers to fail.
• Once the flowers appear use a high phosphorus fertiliser low nitrogen.
• As the fruits appear use a high potassium fertiliser
Fertilisers are identified by NPK values - Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K). So a balanced fertiliser will be labeled 10:10:10 (equal parts of the three elements) For each stage you want the number for the appropriate element to be higher than the other two.
Planting Pumpkins and squash seeds is the same for all types, in this video we show you how we plant two varieties Potimarron and Galeux d’ eysines.
Below are the steps we outline in the video
1.Pumpkins are best planted in full sun.
2.You can grow them in containers and let them trail over the edge.
3.Pumpkins like its of nutrients, good rich soil is best.
4.Seeds are best planted directly into the ground, you can soak them first in lukewarm water for slightly faster gemination, and often better germination rates.
5.Wait until the soil begins to warm up in spring before planting.
6.If you hill up the soil a little it will warm up a little more quickly.
7.Seeds are planted at around 3 cm deep (1 inch)
8.Germination will take around 5 - 8 days in good conditions.
9.Larger growing types should be planted at least 1.5 metres apart. (5ft)
Smaller types can be closer.
10.Use a high nitrogen fertiliser around 3 weeks after seed germination.
11.After that use a seaweed / fish emulsion fertiliser or pellets..
12.Water well , especially once they start to flower.
13. As the fruit forms you can lift it and sit it on a piece of wood or similar to prevent the base from getting to wet.
14. Wait until the skin changes colour before harvesting.
The skin should be hard.
15.Leave a stem, or handle on the pumpkin when you harvest it.
16. Sit the pumpkin in the sun for 5 - 7 days after harvesting to cure.
Store in a cool dry position.

Its not a waste of time to plant pumpkin seeds in pot first when you have fowls in the yard. They even dig up the pots so I put the pots in side till they're ready for transplanting.

Nice video. I had issues with my pumpkins being pollinated. I eventually just stopped wrapping the runners around (they're planted in old truck tyres) and they then pollinated and didn't die off. I will have to get some less unruly seeds for next year I think (or ideally, set aside a couple hundred m2 for a veggie garden).
Thanks, very well put together video.

Which one
Every fall I collect the pumpkin seeds and dry them out carefully, then I grind them into a fine powder. This powder I mix with a kelp and keep the mixture in a jar. It can be kept in a dark cool room for upwards of three years. When I have some itchy rash pop up on my taint area I lather on a good portion of the pumpkin seed / kelp mixture with the back side of a common tablespoon. My delicate taint gets relief in seconds, long-lasting relief too. Give it a try I'm sure it will work for you.

Pumpkins need a lot of sun to grow well. In a terracotta pot we would suggest only 1 plant, and the pot needs to be fairly large. The yellowing could be from lack of sun or fertiliser.

Styrian pumpkin is grown for seeds.
No. So the semen is actually the pollen that the bees carry to the pumpkin plant. Once that reaches the flower of a female pumpkin plant (pumpkins are not like most flowers which are both male and female), that female plant will produce fruit that contains seeds. The seed is the zygote (fusion of sperm and egg) or the child in other words. The pumpkin fruit (along with every other fruit) is developed simply to help spread the seeds. Not every seed is genetically viable though so some don't end up growing. Not sure if those are the ones you buy in the grocery store or if there are farmers that willingly put their best seeds on the market (the latter is unlikely because it doesnt sound like a sustainable business strategy).

@@johnnyAGardening i have first-hand experience where I live they'll grow anywhere one time I gave some to my chickens and they kicked some of the seeds out and the pumpkin grew next to the chicken coop without me knowing
It sounds so easy, but I can't seem to keep any plant alive. I overwater or underwater or scream at them too loud...

For most plants, just damp soil, never wet and soggy, never completely dry. You can feel the moisture in the ground with your hand most times. Maybe try singing instead.....

@@johnnyAGardening Hahaha! Thank you for the great advice! One of my biggest issues is really where I live. Southern Arizona is so hostile to so many plants, it seems. I'll try singing next time. ;)

@@SmittenKitten. If its pumpkins, you need to start them early in a plastic tunnel or similar. Actually same with most vegetables, start them off early indoors or in a greenhouse set up of some sort. Plant them out as soon as the weather warms....You can do it..

Once the plant starts to grow you need water regularly. The trick is to water in the morning if the soil is a little on the dry side. So if no rain, around 2 - 3 times a week, especially during fruit set. Soil shouod be moist but never wet and soggy.

It’s a waste of time if you live in warmer regions. Those of us in the way north have to start seeds inside. Jeez.

You have a point, however, if you have pests that eat you seedlings, and birds that seem to find seeds then sometimes you need to start them off in containers. Also containers generally have warmer soil, so they can be started earlier. In a good sized container and a little care you get little to no transplant shock, and a flying start. Also avoids late frosts. However, each to her/his own.
Thanks for talking slow. Most youtube videos are talking too fast and I can’t get the information!!!
