Wetsel Seed Jack Be Little Pumpkin Seed Packet

This pumpkin is one of the world's smallest and most interesting. Easy-to-grow plants will bear an average of 8 miniature pumpkins, approximately 2 in./5 cm. tall and 3 in./8 cm. in diameter. Although edible, they are most often used as table decorations and miniature jack-o' lanterns. Properly cured, pumpkins will last up to 8 months. Select a sunny location and plant in the late spring when the soil has warmed. For an earlier crop, start indoors 4-6 weeks before setting out. For best results loosen soil with spade or fork, working in vegetable food and organic matter, and smooth with rake. Firm soil over seed. Keep soil moist and weed regularly. Pick fruit carefully, leaving a little stem, when the vines begin to dry out and the fruit is fully mature, usually after the first autumn frost. Do not bruise or injure.
