Seed Count

A giant pumpkin is an orange fruit of the squash Cucurbita maxima, commonly weighing from 68 kilograms (150 lb) to over 910 kilograms (2,010 lb).

Atlantic Giant Pumpkin is a famous heirloom variety bred for enormous size, originally developed by Howard Dill in Nova Scotia. With proper care, these pumpkins commonly reach 400–500 lb and can exceed 1,000 lb under expert growing conditions, making them the standard for giant pumpkin competitions worldwide. The fruits are large, round to slightly flattened with heavy ribbing and pale to medium-orange skin. While the flesh is edible, Atlantic Giant pumpkins are primarily grown for exhibition, fall displays, and record-breaking weigh-offs rather than flavor.

Pumpkins aren’t difficult to grow, but do require a bit of planning for success. Since their vines can grow 20 feet and they are prone to mildew, a Staking System for vertical support is recommended to keep fruit off the wet ground and allow for good air circulation. You will want to make sure this crop receives direct sunlight every day, and that temperatures are consistently hot. Once your pumpkins have been planted, prevent unwanted pests by covering them with insect netting up until four weeks. Since pumpkins and gourds tend to be heavy drinkers, fill the water reservoir 2-3 times per day once fruit appears on the vines.
