Sow indoors
Sow seeds individually on edge in small pots of firm, moist seed compost 2cm (1in) deep. Cover pot with cling film and place in the warmth 15-18°C (60-65°F). As seedlings develop, remove cling film and grow on under cool, light conditions, but not in direct sunlight. Keep moist.
Plant out
Gradually accustom young plants to outdoor conditions for 2-3 weeks before planting out to their cropping positions, allowing 90cm (36in) between plants, after risk of frost has passed. Water and feed regularly.
Sow outdoors
Water sowing positions, then sow two or three seeds close together in a group 2cm (1in) deep allowing 90cm (36in) between each group. After germination, leave only the strongest seedling in each group.
Aftercare
Keep well watered in dry spells. Pumpkins grow and ripen best in full sun. It is very important to feed and water regularly.
