Flesh moderately sweet, juicy, dense orange-red. Keeps well for more than 3 months. An excellent variety for soups, baking cakes, baking, pickling. Grows in sunny, nutrient-rich soil. Pumpkin seeds are sown 3-4 cm deep in April, planted in pots in May. Seedlings are planted in the garden after frost. Suitable for short-term storage – after harvesting, the fruit can be stored for no longer than 3 months.
It is grown both in seedlings and by direct sowing of seeds in the ground (when the threat of frost has passed). The seeding depth is not more than 4 cm. With the seedling method, sowing is carried out in separate pots (8-10 cm in diameter), since it is better to plant plants in the ground with a clod of earth (seedlings should have 2-4 true leaves). Further care consists in loosening the soil, regular watering (in the initial period of cultivation) and fertilizing with complex fertilizers. Pumpkin prefers loose nutrient soils and does not tolerate shading.
Number of seeds in one package: 2g.
