Agricultural technology.
The best soils for pumpkins are sandy and light loamy. Pumpkin is sown when the soil warms up to + 10 + 12 °С. Seeds are planted to a depth of 5-10 cm.
2-3 seeds are sown in one hole. After germination, weak plants are removed.
Pumpkin is also grown through seedlings, with planting in open ground at the age of one month (the phase of two or three true leaves).
Long climbing varieties are sown in an ordinary way according to a scheme of 1.4x1.0 m. Bush pumpkin forms are sown in a square-nested way according to a scheme of 80x60 cm.
Plant care includes: pinching the lateral lashes, pinching the main stem (after setting several fruits), watering, weeding, loosening and obligatory top dressing.
For better formation of adventitious roots, the plants are lightly spudded with moist soil. Harvest fruits as they ripen.
