kent jap pumpkin 10 seeds

Delicious and tasty round pumpkins with excellent flavourand good storage ability. They have a sweet flavour and are good in salads and quiches. Plants perform well in poorer soils as they prefer lower nutrient levels to most vegetablecrops so very easy to maintain and grow.

How To Grow

Sow seeds in clumps of 2-3 seeds, spacing each clump 60cm (2ft) apart. Place the seeds on their edges to ensure they don't rot and keep moist. Soil must be warm and should not be very fertile – over-fertile soils result in poor fruit growth and excessive leaves. Thin to the strongest seedling in each group when they emerge. Provide liquid feeds and if needed, hand-pollinate the female flowers. Harvest when the stalks become dry. Fruits store for 4-5 months if kept dry and uninjured.
