- Cucurbita pepo
Bag of 12 seeds
This variety produces large, slightly elongated orange fruits weighing 7 to 12 kg. Their thin, hard skin is orange. Their thick, orange flesh offers excellent sweetness.
Sow in pots at 18-20°C, 2 to 3 weeks before planting. Transplant with the root ball into the ground, after the last frosts, at a minimum distance of 2 m in all directions. To sow directly in the ground, sow after the last frosts, once the soil has warmed up. In both cases, prepare holes filled with compost or organic matter two weeks in advance to accommodate your seedlings or seeds.
