Small Sugar Heirloom Pumpkin Seeds

Small Sugar Heirloom Pumpkin Seeds grow rounded, orange-yellow pumpkins with a thick rind, averaging 8 to 10 inches in diameter at maturity. The fine-grained, sweet, stringless yellow-orange flesh makes Small Sugar a highly preferred pumpkin for canning and pies. The vigorous vines need plenty of room, so plant them at the edge of the garden to spread.

How to grow

Sow 1 inch deep in spring in full sun, spacing plants 40 to 60 inches apart in single rows or a solid-seeded wide-row block. Because the vines take up a lot of room, plant at the edge of the garden so they can spread away from other vegetables. Keep the bed weed-free with adequate moisture.
