Days to germination: 5 to 14 days Days to harvest: ~130 days Light requirements: Full sun Water requirements: Regular watering Soil: Loose, fertile and well-draining soil Seed Planting Depth: 1 1/2" Germination temperature: 68 - 85°F How to plant:1 Remove weeds, rocks and debris from a planting site with a diameter of 25 feet, space enough for five vines. Spread a 4- to 6-inch-deep layer of compost over the ground with a rake. Broadcast 1/2 pound of 10-10-10 nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium granular fertilizer evenly over the entire site. Mix the compost and fertilizer into the top 10 to 12 inches of soil with a garden fork or rototiller. Smooth the soil's surface with the rake. 2 Build up a hill of soil, 2 to 3 feet wide and 3 to 4 inches tall, in the planting site. Pat the top of the hill to flatten its peak. Space multiple hills 8 to 10 feet apart.No Matches Found. Please try your search again. 3 Poke four to five holes, 1 inch deep, in the top of each hill. Space the individual holes 1 inch apart. Place one "Dill's Atlantic Giant" pumpkin seed in the bottom of each hole. Fill in each hole with 1 inch of soil, tamping it down firmly. Water the planting site thoroughly using a garden hose. 4 Check the soil each day for signs of moisture loss. Water the soil when the top 1/2 to 1 inch begins to dry. Keep the soil evenly moist and avoid over watering to the point of developing soggy soil. Watch for germination six to 10 days after planting. 5Water pumpkin seedlings when the top 1 to 2 inches of soil becomes dry. Water the plants in the morning to allow time for the foliage to dry before nightfall. Never let the soil dry out completely or become soggy. 6Thin the number of seedlings growing in each hill to one when the plants reach 2 inches in height or develop three true leaves. Cut through the bases of the weakest plants with a pair of pruning shears. Do not pull the seedlings up, as this could damage the root system of the remaining seedling. 7Pull weeds from the planting site as they appear. Spread a 1-inch layer of mulch over the planting site to reduce weed growth and maintain soil moisture. Keep the mulch 3 to 4 inches from each plant's center to keep the stems from rotting. 8Spread 1/4 cup of 10-10-10 N-P-K fertilizer in a ring around each plant when it reaches 12 to 15 inches in height and is producing running vines. Keep the fertilizer 3 to 6 inches away from the plant's center to avoid burning it. Rake the fertilizer into the top 3 to 4 inches of soil. Water the area thoroughly to activate the fertilizer. Make additional, identical applications every four to six weeks throughout the remainder of the growing season. 9Cut off all but the three best fruits from each plant once they reach 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Pick the blossoms from the pumpkin plants each day to avoid the formation of additional pumpkins. Cut the terminal ends off of the plants' vines with a pair of pruning shears, slicing through the stems 1/4 inch above their first or second sets of leaves below the tips, to divert the plants' energy from forming additional blossoms to feeding the remaining fruit. 10Thin the pumpkins to one fruit per plant once they reach 6 inches in diameter. Cut through the stems just above each fruit with pruning shears. Keep the best shaped fruit on the vine to grow further. 11Roll the remaining pumpkins onto individual sheets of cardboard or plywood to protect them from insects and soil-borne diseases. Turn each pumpkin one-quarter of a turn every one to two weeks until the pumpkin becomes too heavy to turn easily, ensuring an evenly rounded shape. Move the pumpkins carefully so as not to break their stems. 12Cut through the stem of each pumpkin with pruning shears to harvest it from its plant. Harvest the pumpkins before the first fall frost date, once they develop a fully orange skin and reach the desired size. Seed Counts All seed counts should be considered estimates.
