I would really like to see you do this again, but this time just after carving give the pumpkin a light coat of resin on the outside skin so when you froze dry it, the out side will not crack and all the moisture will just get out from the inside.
just another idea if u guys want to try it again cut the pumpkin horizontally freeze dry it once it's dry sew or staple it back together. the sewing or staples will give it a Frankenstein design
So the Cactus Juice Nate was mentioning to you is a different type of resin called Stabilizing Resin, the idea is you put the item that has a lot of air in it inside the stabilizing resin (which does not actually harden) inside a vacuum chamber for a long time, then when you release the vacuum, all the stabilizing resin gets sucked into all the gaps that previously had air in it. You then typically bake it at a low temperature to cure that stabilizing resin. But that is not the end, you then are able to use regular resin to fully preserve it on the outside knowing that the inside is safe and secure. The nice thing about stabilizing resin is because it doesn't heat up or harden on its own you fully submerge it in the vacuum chamber and leave it in there for hours, then all the leftover stabilizing resin left in the container you can reuse for future projects so it lasts a lot longer than epoxy.
This comment needs more likes so they see it! Fantastic breakdown on what the product actually is and how it works so hopefully it would get them that step closer to perfect pumpkin preservation.
An Idea for next year: Cut up the pumpkin in irregular pieces so it looks like as if the pumpkin shattered. Freeze dry those pieces and glue it back together with red glue as if the pumpkin is bleeding. Then put it in resin. This way is possible to freeze dry a normal sized pumpkin and encase it in resin!!!!
Or put it together with spaces in between and encase it in resin with a light source on the inside, then at night the light would highlight the cracks making it look like a shattered ghost pumpkin.
The spot on the bottom of the pumpkin is where the flower was. The pumpkin blossom was pollinated and then the seeds develop at what was the base of the flower. As it grows the flower withers away and falls off, but that point leaves a scar. You will find the same on zucchini, squash, pea pods, cucumbers, and so much more.
Make me think of belly buttons on people. I do wonder if they were talking about the hole that was in that spot though, because the small hole came from the drill.
I have watched these every year with my twin brother. Last year was really funny because you had the pumpkin named Bean, and that is one of my brothers nicknames.

18:42 Hi. PhD in botany here. So the seeds start as "ovules" which you can see in the "ovary" within the female flowers. They look like little transparent tiny seeds sorta. For the ovules that get fertilized, they develop into the seeds, and the ovary develops into the rest of the pumpkin fruit. So yeah, they are "born" with all the seeds they'll have, or more accurately, with _more_ than they will usually have developed in the end.
with what you guys said about the pumpkins developing seeds pumpkins don’t actually develop more seeds as they grow; instead, the seeds that are initially present in the small pumpkin get bigger and mature as the pumpkin develops. When a pumpkin first forms, it already has a predetermined number of ovules (potential seeds). As the pumpkin grows, these ovules develop into mature seeds, increasing in size but not in number. The final number of mature seeds can vary depending on factors like the pumpkin’s health, environmental conditions, and genetics, but once the ovules are set, the potential seed count is essentially fixed.
Fun fact: this is true for humans as well. Once our oocytes are made in utero, we can never exceed that number. A large chunk are reabsorbed before birth and from birth on almost all of them will die before maturing into an actual egg that exits the fallopian tubes during ovulation.
I have used freezedrying for conservation of archaeological objects. If you want them to keep their appearance and not rot then there are some extra steps before putting them in the freeze dryer. 1. Cleaning and a bath in some kind of antimicrobial (optional) 2. Impregnation to replace the water in the structure. I’d suggest with low molecular weight PEG or glycerin Slowly freezing outside the freeze dryer is also a good idea Then once in, the way to make sure they are fully dry is to weigh them each time you take them out. Plot a graph of the weight and they are done when the weight levels out and stops changing.
@@sallyoldford9237 That was my thought too. There is this process of turning living tissue into plastics, that is probably the best looking way, because it replaces the water in the cells with other substances which could later be hardened.
@@abelnemeth4346 Yeah basically anything that replaces the function that the water is performing wrt the shape. Otherwise you are pretty much guaranteed to get a lot of shrinkage and therefore cracks if it’s anywhere near fully dry. It can also take a lot longer than you think which is why measuring the weight to see when it stops changing is the best way rather than just going by how much weight it has lost. I’d also recommend plotting the size to monitor shrinkage when doing small scale tests. Comparing shrinkage between different impregnation methods / solutions is going to give the best prediction of final outcome
If you had given me a thousand tries, I still wouldn't have guessed that the missing step in the yearslong attempts to preserve a pumpkin in resin was to first impregnate the pumpkin.
@@clairepettie noooooo 😭😭😭😭 reading so many papers about this completely normalised that term for me i didn’t even think about it should clarify that it’s mostly wood that this has been studied on it just should work similarly with any organic material oh god im not making this sound any better
The scaring on the bottom of the pumpkin is where the flower was attached to the pumpkin, the Stem is where the pumpkin was attached to the plant. Edit: Thanks for the likes and replies, I can't Believe this got this big SO fast! I am MOST honored!!
I BET if they freeze dried it halfway to where it still looked good and THEN put it in silica for a few days it would be perfect. Because its the too quick drying thats cracking it. Also the silica didn't work the last time because it was overwhelmed with the high amount of moisture. But if 60% of the moisture is gone the silica could do the rest
if slowing down the drying is better, they should turn off the heating of the metal plates in the freeze dryer. i'm not 100% sure the appliance itself has that option... if they can't switch off the heating directly, they could still wrap it with some insulation to prevent the heat from directly radiating into the pumpkins i guess? RIP their electric bill tho. btw, technology connections did a loooong video about freeze dryers
@@Lu-li1ei nope, the heating is to accelerate the sublimation of frozen ice crystals into gas in the vacuum. it sounds counterintuitive but we don't live in a vacuum... the entire point of freeze drying is to use this property of water ice sublimation to remove moisture. this happens in normal atmospheric conditions (if you have any really old ice cubes in your freezer you will notice that they shrank quite a bit) but really very slowly. sublimation happens a little more quickly if there's a vacuum, and a little more quickly when there's heat as well. afaik, those expensive freeze dryers have a cycle where they alternate between freezing and heating using some sorta optimisation algorithm, which means they do turn the heating on and off automatically already. without heating it will just take longer to sublimate, but it will still be faster than your non-vacuum freezer.
i love looking forward to the never ending pumpkin preserving crusade every year!! Edit: i think ice cube pumpkin is still the best as far as preserving the color of the pumpkin goes, but this was a pretty good result!
16:15 I have been farming in California for 15+ years, growing all kinds of crops and vegetables. It’s always fun to share about how things you see in the market actually grow! Pumpkins grow on a long, creeping vine (covered in tiny hairlike spines) and starts with a single origin/main root system where the germinated seed sprouted, but also self roots as it continues to spread (if you have houseplants, similar to how a pothos sends out air roots). From that vine also grows leaves which are somewhat flat and broad, providing shade to the delicate flower buds which are found close together. There are also curling tendrils which work as anchor points, in addition to the roots along the vine stem, that the plant uses to secure itself to nearby objects, like a trellis or other plants. They are surprisingly strong! The “butt” of the pumpkin is actually where the flower bud opened and was fertilized…leading to the development of an immature fruit which later grew into a pumpkin, likely green at first before ripening into the common orange color. Imagine blowing up a balloon! The top of the pumpkin is the part which is used to make a lid when carving, often found with the small bit of stem for aesthetic purposes. That is where the fruit attaches to the main vine. The pumpkin vines are also incredibly strong, able to self-support the weight of a decently-sized pumpkin (15-20 pounds) hanging down from a height. Most growers prefer to let the plants remain on the ground, but I love training mine up a trellis. Other squash, pumpkins, gourds and cubits grow in similar fashion. edit: added timestamp :)
Im not that into crafts and resin. But every year im delighted to see those two faces in my reccomendations and see the progress of this project and then im binge watching your past videos over the past year
for pumpkins, the 'butt' is actually where the flower used to connect. if you look at a pumpkin flower, theres actually male and female ones, and on the female flowers, you can see a lil pumpkin at the very base where they connect to the vine! also semi helpful if you didnt label your vines (speaking from experience), but the point is, the flower gets pollenated, and then withers, and as the pumpkin sizes up, the flower eventually just falls off, and then the fruit scars leaving behind the 'butt'. Fun fact also, pumpkins, watermelon and bananas are berries, but strawberries are not!
Raspberries and Blackberries also aren't berries! Also, what's the difference between a male and female pumpkin? I know there's male and female peppers too, and it's dependent on the amount of splits or different sections on them.
@@EmotionalSupportChaosDemon to my knowledge the only difference is the flowers. only the flowers that have baby pumpkins make them, though grain of salt on that one, as im no proffessional
@@EmotionalSupportChaosDemon there aren't male & female pumpkins, it's the flowers that have the relative anatomical differences. Basically they're plant genitalia, the male flowers arrive first and supply the pollen (& nectar) for pollinators to take to other vines, female flowers arrive later in the vine's growing season in an effort to avoid self pollination. As far as I know this is the same for all cucurbits (the family of vining plants which produce melons, cucumbers, squash etc) though I haven't attempted to grow all of them 😅
You should look into using stabilizing liquid to soak into the freeze dried pumpkins next year instead of using regular resin. Peter Brown (here on UA-cam) often uses it to solidify porous materials before he turns them on his lathe or uses them in his own various resin projects. Stabilizing liquid would also open up you guys to more creative possibilities!
I’m constantly reminded by these videos, that even though they are in the same creator niche, that doesn’t mean they consume that content. Thus they still haven’t seen Peter Browns videos and tried stabilising resin. But fingers crossed for next year! Hopefully they can apply multiple methods they’ve tried along with stabilising resin!
I've been saying this for years. Literally watch every year to see if they do it and they haven't yet. Probably cause they know it would work and then there would be no more videos about pumpkins? IDK. I'm being silly. Still hoping they get it someday. I got excited with the penetrating resin this time. I thought that was it.
ffs, I can't explain how attractive people are who have fun, are passionate and don't take themselves too serious. Just seeing you two interact raised my mood tenfold! Keep doing and sharing what you love!
I'm wondering if there is some way to light it from inside the jar. Not sure how fairylights would respond to being submerged in pickling liquid. It would definitely look eery as hell if you could place lights within the jar, but probably the acid would kill the circuitry around the batteries etc. And opening it up or having a wire run into it would make it much less shelf stable. Probably lighting from underneath or behind would be the way to go. But I can totally picture it, with the pumpkin being submerged in slightly mucky looking liquid with some loose herbs and leafs swirling around it.
I'm so excited for another pumpkin video, I hope they never stop casting pumpkins. Also, these sponsors better pay these two very well because the effort and time spent on these skits is remarkable. I want an entire episode of Love Peninsula next!!
We need a video where you try freeze drying different foods !! Gotta help cover that cost 😅 Also Katelyn coming home to joobie🥲🥲 I just know she was extra needy YES YOU DID IT !!!
I can’t believe I’ve been watching your channel for this many years! I’ve been here since before the beginning of this pumpkin journey. 🎃 Edit: I’ve been watching since I was around 13 and now I’m about to turn 20.
i think i was too!! i know my first video was the catio but ive got no clue how old it was when i watched it, and ive watched so many of their videos now that it feels like ive been here since the start honestly edit: seeing nate was crazy though, because i think it was watching so much TKOR that got E&K into my feed!
"How long were you going to let me struggle?". No joke, that was the best line/line delivery in channel history, it was so genuine!. I may have re-watched that a couple times. That whole short sequence was the best.
I'd love to see you freeze-dry a bunch of other microneedled things, it's a pretty aesthetic effect. Maybe oranges/lemons/limes then hang them on a Christmas tree as decorations...?
Guys I needed this so bad, my week has been horrible and this is making me so happy, genuinely thank you guys for the amazing content you create it makes my life better ❤
29:10 Botanist comment. I think the crap your seeing on the surface is a waxy cuticle that is cracking as the pumpkin dries. You could try scrubbing the pumpkin with some solvent capable of dissolving waxes, and it might come right off.
What's absolutely wild is a couple of days ago after watching Technology Connections freeze-drying video, then watching your saving the pumpkin video i thought about commenting why yall havent tried freeze drying it. Im so hyped for this!!!
For anyone wondering 16:25 it is the spot where the blossom is attatched. When the pumpkin grows, it then wilks away and this spot on the bottom remains.
18:55 I have been watching you guys since you blew up, its been great watching you grow and become full time UA-camrs. Its like a stake to the heart seeing an AI backdrop being used for decoration when you can spend $2500 on equipment for a video but not a $50-100 whatever for a backdrop to support a real artist. I consider you both to be artists and this genuinely gave me such an ick.
I know its just a backdrop and I still enjoyed the video, I just hope this isnt' going to be a common trend for them and I hope they will support real artists when they want to use their art (since AI is just mushed up artists work)
@@blainesprague2365 yeah, just continuing to attempt to experiment and come up with the best way to do it. become experts in preserving pumpkins in resin
an important staple of E&K videos: the amazing sponsorship skits (and the make fail make fail make fail, of course) your guys' videos make me so happy!!!!
YES! Finally we can ask you to make a bunch of freeze dry experiments. Please please! Your weird cooking experiments are already fun but I want to see the use of freeze dryer in some of them.
next you should try submerging the pumpkin in mineral oil in a vacuum chamber so that the oil replaces the water and the pumpkin can keep it's fresh/humid aspect and color, kinda like how they make industrial pickles, then dudududu resin time... that should give you the ultimate result.
Do you mean submerging the dried pumpkin in mineral oil? Otherwise I'm pretty sure the water will just repel the oil and it won't really do anything other than making it greasy. I imagine the resin won't stick to a greasy pumpkin either. I liked the suggestion someone else gave in a comment above to plastinate the pumpkins next.
@@lachouette_et_le_phoque i mean putting the pumpkin, submerged in mineral oil, in a vacuum chamber, the water in the pumpkin will evaporate and when pressure is restored, the mineral oil should seep into the pumpkin and replace its lost liquids. once the pumpkin is taken out and towel dried it should be good to be encased in a resin cube (since a wet fresh pumpkin was ok to do the same to). now with mineral oil instead of water in the pumpkin fiber, it should not rot and shrink away from its resin cube. yes, it will be greasier to the touch than an untreated pumpkin but i don't see that being too much of a problem for encasing it. in absolute terms, the plastination solution is superior but in the context of a youtube video i worry about the complexity of this process (and the cost), it could be overkill imho. but yeah, in perfect lab conditions PLASTINATE AWAY. also, a pumpkin doesn't really have that much fat content (that you'd replace with plastination) so removing just liquids with a vacuum should be enough for preservation purposes.
My boyfriend doesn't understand why I get SO excited seeing your pumpkin videos every year, but then I look at the comments and I love them. Here's my people, I love you
I saw the thumbnail, and immediately I thought: “Okay it’s happening people! Everybody stay calm. EVERYONE STAY CALM!” It’s supposed to be one of those “The Office” meme, I hope I got it right. Generally energy, TLDR: I AM THE EMBODIMENT OF EXCITED!
The "butt" of the pumpkin is where the petals of the flower connect to the base of the stem. The Pumpkin comes from the developed ovaries of the flower (this is the same for all fruits).
33:55 Lmaooo I watched, paused and read ALL of the credits. I always love how much extra effort Evan and Katelyn put in their editing! It’s completely unnecessary but so much FUN!
I audibly gasped in excitement when I saw this notif! PUMPKIN TIMEEEEE Would also like to add that the editing in this video is 1000/10 i love the transitions and effects! Plus! I love the collab with Nate
Hello I'm really much impressed by your profile. I don't normally write in here but I think you deserve this compliment. You can send me a message or I can add you up on Instagram if you don’t mind?
@@_MusicalDumpster_ yeah i feel like they lost the plot a little after Grant passed. Made the content more child friendly. But I understand why: advertisers prefer to support safer content, and shes a widow trying to support the family. I hope all is going well and theyve found a new audience. E&K perfectly fit that slightly dangerous slightly unhinged nook very well
Sprout is definitely the best yet!! But I think the true final frontier in perfect pumpkin preservation is to follow through with Nate's suggestion to use a stabilizing resin, like Cactus Juice. You sublimate out as much moisture as possible using the freeze dryer, and then you replace all that moisture with cactus juice and a vacuum chamber. That way you KNOW that the resin is fully penetrated - at least, as much as it could be. Although, to be honest, the result may not look all that different visually. 😅 So maybe it's not a great video? I'd still like to see/know though!
PUMPKIN LORE: they do sprout with an specific amount of seeds, the seed is every tiny ovule that got fertilized inside the girl flower ovary, which "evolves" and turn into the pumpkin itself. So as they get bigger,, the seeds, and embryos inside, get bigger and mature too. :)
two and half grand on machines probably blew out the resin budget this year... Hopefully they can find a way to make back some f the investment on that freeze drier 😅
it's gotten to the point that by late september I start thinking about the yearly resin pumpkin and patiently await one of my favorite videos not only by E&K but also on youtube in general 🎃🧡
No matter what's happening in my life, I am filled with so much joy when I see new installments of this series come up. Keep up the good work you guys ❤️❤️❤️
32:07 five hundred years in the future, some archeologist is going to unearth these perfectly preserved pumpkins, say, "wtf? weird ass pumpkin cult, I guess."

I feel like stabilizing resin is what Nate meant. You soak your porous material under a vacuum. Then it pushes it all in when you release the vacuum. The resin doesn't cure until you bake it. Talk to Peter Brown about his stablelizing setup.

A homunculus !

HIVEMIND! I just had the same idea, except taking apart and reconstructing one full-sized pumpkin instead of multiple.
I can think of orange and white, what other colours of pumpkins are there?

I have used freezedrying for conservation of archaeological objects. If you want them to keep their appearance and not rot then there are some extra steps before putting them in the freeze dryer.
1. Cleaning and a bath in some kind of antimicrobial (optional)

@@abelnemeth4346 Yeah basically anything that replaces the function that the water is performing wrt the shape. Otherwise you are pretty much guaranteed to get a lot of shrinkage and therefore cracks if it’s anywhere near fully dry.
It can also take a lot longer than you think which is why measuring the weight to see when it stops changing is the best way rather than just going by how much weight it has lost.
I’d also recommend plotting the size to monitor shrinkage when doing small scale tests. Comparing shrinkage between different impregnation methods / solutions is going to give the best prediction of final outcome
If you had given me a thousand tries, I still wouldn't have guessed that the missing step in the yearslong attempts to preserve a pumpkin in resin was to first impregnate the pumpkin.
@@clairepettie noooooo 😭😭😭😭 reading so many papers about this completely normalised that term for me i didn’t even think about it
should clarify that it’s mostly wood that this has been studied on it just should work similarly with any organic material oh god im not making this sound any better
The scaring on the bottom of the pumpkin is where the flower was attached to the pumpkin, the Stem is where the pumpkin was attached to the plant.
Edit: Thanks for the likes and replies, I can't Believe this got this big SO fast! I am MOST honored!!
Yup. The pumpkin is the swollen ovary of the female flower.
Yep, it's often called the "Blossom End"
Basically all fruits have them.
That's where a pumpkin excretes its flower 😊
So would that make it the belly button rather than the butt?
Yes, belly button
Anybody else notice that Evan is wearing black nail polish??? Love it!!
I can't believe that I've been watching y'all so long that I've seen each pumpkin become real. I'm so excited for another episode.
I BET if they freeze dried it halfway to where it still looked good and THEN put it in silica for a few days it would be perfect. Because its the too quick drying thats cracking it. Also the silica didn't work the last time because it was overwhelmed with the high amount of moisture. But if 60% of the moisture is gone the silica could do the rest
I thought that too!!
if slowing down the drying is better, they should turn off the heating of the metal plates in the freeze dryer. i'm not 100% sure the appliance itself has that option... if they can't switch off the heating directly, they could still wrap it with some insulation to prevent the heat from directly radiating into the pumpkins i guess?
RIP their electric bill tho.
btw, technology connections did a loooong video about freeze dryers
As far as I understand it's the heating that evaporates the moisture out, if they turn it off then it won't get dried
@@Lu-li1ei nope, the heating is to accelerate the sublimation of frozen ice crystals into gas in the vacuum. it sounds counterintuitive but we don't live in a vacuum...
the entire point of freeze drying is to use this property of water ice sublimation to remove moisture. this happens in normal atmospheric conditions (if you have any really old ice cubes in your freezer you will notice that they shrank quite a bit) but really very slowly.
sublimation happens a little more quickly if there's a vacuum, and a little more quickly when there's heat as well. afaik, those expensive freeze dryers have a cycle where they alternate between freezing and heating using some sorta optimisation algorithm, which means they do turn the heating on and off automatically already.
without heating it will just take longer to sublimate, but it will still be faster than your non-vacuum freezer.
i love looking forward to the never ending pumpkin preserving crusade every year!!
Edit: i think ice cube pumpkin is still the best as far as preserving the color of the pumpkin goes, but this was a pretty good result!
Yeah the best part of the new one though is that you can use it like a normal pumpkin
@@krumpits she has an UA shirt
YES BABY!!!!
16:15 I have been farming in California for 15+ years, growing all kinds of crops and vegetables. It’s always fun to share about how things you see in the market actually grow! Pumpkins grow on a long, creeping vine (covered in tiny hairlike spines) and starts with a single origin/main root system where the germinated seed sprouted, but also self roots as it continues to spread (if you have houseplants, similar to how a pothos sends out air roots).
From that vine also grows leaves which are somewhat flat and broad, providing shade to the delicate flower buds which are found close together. There are also curling tendrils which work as anchor points, in addition to the roots along the vine stem, that the plant uses to secure itself to nearby objects, like a trellis or other plants. They are surprisingly strong!
The “butt” of the pumpkin is actually where the flower bud opened and was fertilized…leading to the development of an immature fruit which later grew into a pumpkin, likely green at first before ripening into the common orange color. Imagine blowing up a balloon!
The top of the pumpkin is the part which is used to make a lid when carving, often found with the small bit of stem for aesthetic purposes. That is where the fruit attaches to the main vine. The pumpkin vines are also incredibly strong, able to self-support the weight of a decently-sized pumpkin (15-20 pounds) hanging down from a height. Most growers prefer to let the plants remain on the ground, but I love training mine up a trellis.
Other squash, pumpkins, gourds and cubits grow in similar fashion.
edit: added timestamp :)
23:06 "If I saw a red flag I'd paint my nails to match" goes hard ngl
39:38 take the control now and set him fully into a block of resin
He deserves it since he has survived
Yuuuuus
Yeses!
yeah I was waiting for this step and they didnt do it lol
number 3 looks perfect. The irregularity of the cube makes it look like a real ice cube, and he's holding up the best color-wise
That one has always been my favorite
@@reaperofburgers same. Love that he looks like he was frozen in an ice cube.
Yeah, I agree with you that one named Chunk.
HE IS BEST PUMPKIN BOY
If they used the cnc to flatten the surface he will be perfect. Or pour another one using the same method but build a more heat resistant moldbox
Im not that into crafts and resin. But every year im delighted to see those two faces in my reccomendations and see the progress of this project and then im binge watching your past videos over the past year
for pumpkins, the 'butt' is actually where the flower used to connect. if you look at a pumpkin flower, theres actually male and female ones, and on the female flowers, you can see a lil pumpkin at the very base where they connect to the vine! also semi helpful if you didnt label your vines (speaking from experience), but the point is, the flower gets pollenated, and then withers, and as the pumpkin sizes up, the flower eventually just falls off, and then the fruit scars leaving behind the 'butt'. Fun fact also, pumpkins, watermelon and bananas are berries, but strawberries are not!
Yup, it's known as the "blossom end". It's how virtually all fruits and vegetables grow, from tomatoes and cucumbers, to apples and oranges.
Raspberries and Blackberries also aren't berries! Also, what's the difference between a male and female pumpkin? I know there's male and female peppers too, and it's dependent on the amount of splits or different sections on them.
@@EmotionalSupportChaosDemon to my knowledge the only difference is the flowers. only the flowers that have baby pumpkins make them, though grain of salt on that one, as im no proffessional
Thank you so much that was very helpful
@@EmotionalSupportChaosDemon there aren't male & female pumpkins, it's the flowers that have the relative anatomical differences. Basically they're plant genitalia, the male flowers arrive first and supply the pollen (& nectar) for pollinators to take to other vines, female flowers arrive later in the vine's growing season in an effort to avoid self pollination. As far as I know this is the same for all cucurbits (the family of vining plants which produce melons, cucumbers, squash etc) though I haven't attempted to grow all of them 😅
My favorite tradition is backkkk!!
You should look into using stabilizing liquid to soak into the freeze dried pumpkins next year instead of using regular resin. Peter Brown (here on UA-cam) often uses it to solidify porous materials before he turns them on his lathe or uses them in his own various resin projects. Stabilizing liquid would also open up you guys to more creative possibilities!
They could also do a test of putting the pumpkins in the normal freezer before dry freezing them to see how it turns out too
I’m constantly reminded by these videos, that even though they are in the same creator niche, that doesn’t mean they consume that content. Thus they still haven’t seen Peter Browns videos and tried stabilising resin.
But fingers crossed for next year! Hopefully they can apply multiple methods they’ve tried along with stabilising resin!
I've been saying this for years. Literally watch every year to see if they do it and they haven't yet. Probably cause they know it would work and then there would be no more videos about pumpkins? IDK. I'm being silly. Still hoping they get it someday. I got excited with the penetrating resin this time. I thought that was it.
As Nate said, cactus juice!
@@LysolMyFace Stabilizing resin (cactus juice) does require to be put in an oven though, something a pumpkin may not get out of unscathed
ffs, I can't explain how attractive people are who have fun, are passionate and don't take themselves too serious. Just seeing you two interact raised my mood tenfold! Keep doing and sharing what you love!
Maybe try making a pickle pumpkin next year? (like somehow get a large enough jar and preserve it like you would while making pickles)
Pickling a pumpkin sounds interesting, but BOY would it smell!
It would look extremely cursed, so I think they should do it LOLLLL
I'm wondering if there is some way to light it from inside the jar. Not sure how fairylights would respond to being submerged in pickling liquid. It would definitely look eery as hell if you could place lights within the jar, but probably the acid would kill the circuitry around the batteries etc. And opening it up or having a wire run into it would make it much less shelf stable.
Probably lighting from underneath or behind would be the way to go. But I can totally picture it, with the pumpkin being submerged in slightly mucky looking liquid with some loose herbs and leafs swirling around it.
I would love to see a pumpkin floating in a jar
@@TheVermilliaFamily once sealed NEVER open it again lol
I'm so excited for another pumpkin video, I hope they never stop casting pumpkins. Also, these sponsors better pay these two very well because the effort and time spent on these skits is remarkable. I want an entire episode of Love Peninsula next!!
haha thank you!
I'm at 00:11 and all I know is I want his name to be shivers🥺

I can’t believe I’ve been watching your channel for this many years! I’ve been here since before the beginning of this pumpkin journey. 🎃
Edit: I’ve been watching since I was around 13 and now I’m about to turn 20.
How many years ago was the potato cannon at this point?
Same I have been subbed since Evan fell through the roof 😂 time flies
@ they said this is the 5th year 😱
i think i was too!! i know my first video was the catio but ive got no clue how old it was when i watched it, and ive watched so many of their videos now that it feels like ive been here since the start honestly
edit: seeing nate was crazy though, because i think it was watching so much TKOR that got E&K into my feed!
I think the first video of theirs I watched was the rainbow resin desk. Can’t believe it’s been that long.
"How long were you going to let me struggle?". No joke, that was the best line/line delivery in channel history, it was so genuine!. I may have re-watched that a couple times. That whole short sequence was the best.
I don’t always watch your vids but when I see a pumpkin I’m clicking in. Been following this saga for years I feel like.
"We'll freeze it in liquid nitrogen!"
I'm sure this could never go wrong.
"OH NO IT'S CRACKING!"
hehe whoops
I'd love to see you freeze-dry a bunch of other microneedled things, it's a pretty aesthetic effect. Maybe oranges/lemons/limes then hang them on a Christmas tree as decorations...?
that'd be interesting to try!
Ooh, red apples! Those are also traditional christmas tree decorations
Guys I needed this so bad, my week has been horrible and this is making me so happy, genuinely thank you guys for the amazing content you create it makes my life better ❤
hope your week gets better!
29:10 Botanist comment. I think the crap your seeing on the surface is a waxy cuticle that is cracking as the pumpkin dries. You could try scrubbing the pumpkin with some solvent capable of dissolving waxes, and it might come right off.
What's absolutely wild is a couple of days ago after watching Technology Connections freeze-drying video, then watching your saving the pumpkin video i thought about commenting why yall havent tried freeze drying it. Im so hyped for this!!!
and neither of them paid attention when he said to (paraphase) "don't let your spouse buy one"
I Love tech connections
28:00 “We can’t protect them forever!”
“Noo”
Sprout in a deep voice “Papa”
For anyone wondering 16:25 it is the spot where the blossom is attatched. When the pumpkin grows, it then wilks away and this spot on the bottom remains.
I stg I read that as walks away at first🤣🤣🤣
I was about to say this, thank you.
I am so glad the pumpkin butt question was answered here!
I was gonna say that. I don't know pumpkins but I do know watermelons and that's how they grow too
18:55 I have been watching you guys since you blew up, its been great watching you grow and become full time UA-camrs. Its like a stake to the heart seeing an AI backdrop being used for decoration when you can spend $2500 on equipment for a video but not a $50-100 whatever for a backdrop to support a real artist. I consider you both to be artists and this genuinely gave me such an ick.
I know its just a backdrop and I still enjoyed the video, I just hope this isnt' going to be a common trend for them and I hope they will support real artists when they want to use their art (since AI is just mushed up artists work)
Can't stop, won't stop .... 39:27
@@blainesprague2365 yeah, just continuing to attempt to experiment and come up with the best way to do it. become experts in preserving pumpkins in resin
an important staple of E&K videos: the amazing sponsorship skits (and the make fail make fail make fail, of course) your guys' videos make me so happy!!!!
YES! Finally we can ask you to make a bunch of freeze dry experiments. Please please! Your weird cooking experiments are already fun but I want to see the use of freeze dryer in some of them.
2:23 I love how they both immediately said "yes".
They simultaneously had a flashback
next you should try submerging the pumpkin in mineral oil in a vacuum chamber so that the oil replaces the water and the pumpkin can keep it's fresh/humid aspect and color, kinda like how they make industrial pickles, then dudududu resin time... that should give you the ultimate result.
Do you mean submerging the dried pumpkin in mineral oil? Otherwise I'm pretty sure the water will just repel the oil and it won't really do anything other than making it greasy. I imagine the resin won't stick to a greasy pumpkin either. I liked the suggestion someone else gave in a comment above to plastinate the pumpkins next.
Industrial Pickle is a cool record label company name
@@lachouette_et_le_phoque i mean putting the pumpkin, submerged in mineral oil, in a vacuum chamber, the water in the pumpkin will evaporate and when pressure is restored, the mineral oil should seep into the pumpkin and replace its lost liquids. once the pumpkin is taken out and towel dried it should be good to be encased in a resin cube (since a wet fresh pumpkin was ok to do the same to). now with mineral oil instead of water in the pumpkin fiber, it should not rot and shrink away from its resin cube.
yes, it will be greasier to the touch than an untreated pumpkin but i don't see that being too much of a problem for encasing it.
in absolute terms, the plastination solution is superior but in the context of a youtube video i worry about the complexity of this process (and the cost), it could be overkill imho. but yeah, in perfect lab conditions PLASTINATE AWAY.
also, a pumpkin doesn't really have that much fat content (that you'd replace with plastination) so removing just liquids with a vacuum should be enough for preservation purposes.
Katelyn: “🎶I don’t wannnna cuut any of my body parts offf🎶”

Omggg the annual pumpkin video is hereee!!!!!!
favorite part of my year tbh i love evan and katelyn for keeping this tradition alive
Love how they brought someone on, asked for advice, got recommended a specific product, and did their own thing anyway xD
PUMPKIN TIME ‼️‼️
Pumpkin time! Do do do do pumpkin time! 🎃
DO DO DO DO PUMPKIN TIME
'Thanks for making me happy' aaaah I can feel Evan's genuine joy there
As a owner of one of these freeze dryers they are freaking awesome and I'm sure you are going to find more projects for it
we wanna freeze dry more stuff now!!!
@@EvanAndKatelyn There's liquid nitrogen ice cream and there's freeze dried ice cream, what if you freeze dried liquid nitrogen ice cream?
You can use all the old ones to decorate your porch! I'm sure the kids in your neighborhood will find it fun to learn about all the experimentations
Having watched technology connections video about freeze dryers recently before starting this one is the golden path
i'm so glad i'm not the only one
Yes i was like oh I am a freeze dryer connoisseur now😂
6:29 that's so sweet of yall 😭 "thanks for making me happy."
My boyfriend doesn't understand why I get SO excited seeing your pumpkin videos every year, but then I look at the comments and I love them. Here's my people, I love you
Your sponsorship adds are literally the only ones I ever watch, they are so entertaining ❤
I saw the thumbnail, and immediately I thought: “Okay it’s happening people! Everybody stay calm. EVERYONE STAY CALM!” It’s supposed to be one of those “The Office” meme, I hope I got it right.
Generally energy, TLDR: I AM THE EMBODIMENT OF EXCITED!
The "butt" of the pumpkin is where the petals of the flower connect to the base of the stem. The Pumpkin comes from the developed ovaries of the flower (this is the same for all fruits).
I've been waiting for this all month.
Truly the greatest Halloween tradition...watching Evan and Katelyn attempt to preserve pumpkins.
Omg y’all editing skills are getting better and better!!
Yes, yes we need another try next year. The pumpkin in the ice cube was clearly the best one this far, just make it not so wavy and ice-y! 😇
22:18 omg becca is so iconic
33:55 Lmaooo I watched, paused and read ALL of the credits. I always love how much extra effort Evan and Katelyn put in their editing! It’s completely unnecessary but so much FUN!
Thank you for this comment. Because those credits had me cackling.
5 years is crazy! I didn’t realize how long I’ve been watching these videos for!
I audibly gasped in excitement when I saw this notif! PUMPKIN TIMEEEEE
Would also like to add that the editing in this video is 1000/10 i love the transitions and effects! Plus! I love the collab with Nate
My cat Squeak crossed the Rainbow Bridge in August this year. I am honoured to see her namesake as the control pumpkin xx
I'm sorry
but now this vid is a ray of light
hope you're okay 🤍🤍🤍
Hello I'm really much impressed by your profile. I don't normally write in here but I think you deserve this compliment. You can send me a message or I can add you up on Instagram if you don’t mind?
YESSS!!! FINALLY!!!! You have no idea how long I've been refreshing my page for this video! It's been WEEKS y'all!
Absolutely love the ways they bring up their merch!
Love seeing Nate doing great. Used to watch him and Cali over there on TKoR, truly the Duke and Duchess
I was wondering why I recognized him, I haven't watched those videos in a long time-
Nate had his own channel now! Nate from the Internet. He does a lot of cool things better than before because he had creative control.
@@Echosofthepast0tKoR died when they left. I miss that chaos and Evan and Katelyn fill that missing puzzle piece
@_MusicalDumpster_ yeah ever since I stopped watching them I started watching Evan and Katelyn and I absolutely loved them and Joob!! /p
@@_MusicalDumpster_ yeah i feel like they lost the plot a little after Grant passed. Made the content more child friendly. But I understand why: advertisers prefer to support safer content, and shes a widow trying to support the family. I hope all is going well and theyve found a new audience.
E&K perfectly fit that slightly dangerous slightly unhinged nook very well
THE PUMPKIN IS HERE!!!!! SO EXCITED TO MEET THE NEW GUY
Sprout is definitely the best yet!! But I think the true final frontier in perfect pumpkin preservation is to follow through with Nate's suggestion to use a stabilizing resin, like Cactus Juice. You sublimate out as much moisture as possible using the freeze dryer, and then you replace all that moisture with cactus juice and a vacuum chamber. That way you KNOW that the resin is fully penetrated - at least, as much as it could be. Although, to be honest, the result may not look all that different visually. 😅 So maybe it's not a great video? I'd still like to see/know though!
all of your merch designs are so creative and the perfect level of being merch while still being very wearable. I love it!
34:45 You caramelized that poor thing's insides!!
what if... for next year, plant your own pumpkin... just a thought✨
OMG, YES!!!!
Ok, now I wanna see THIS!
They have to!!! 😭😭
5 years, IT'S TIME GUYS! Your own bean, trully your son
you're A GENIUS, cmon lets do iittt
This is the only tradition I care about.
I just got home from a rough day, grabbed some candy, and put on your video. It made me feel so much better. ❤
A. I love this series B. I love your editing style, the little floating text is so cute and funny. It's like little extra jokes just for us.
PUMPKIN LORE: they do sprout with an specific amount of seeds, the seed is every tiny ovule that got fertilized inside the girl flower ovary, which "evolves" and turn into the pumpkin itself. So as they get bigger,, the seeds, and embryos inside, get bigger and mature too. :)
no way
I hope next year they go back to trying a bigger pumpkin in a resin cube! i love the resin cubey boys.
two and half grand on machines probably blew out the resin budget this year... Hopefully they can find a way to make back some f the investment on that freeze drier 😅
SAME! They should dehydrate it and them make a pumpkin cube with the dehydrated one.
This has to be my favorite video every year 🧡
LETS GO HALLOWEEN IS TRULY CELEBRATED NOW
it's gotten to the point that by late september I start thinking about the yearly resin pumpkin and patiently await one of my favorite videos not only by E&K but also on youtube in general 🎃🧡

@@VtuberEnjoyer9-121 uh okay
I love that you and Technology Connections did a video with a freeze dryer so close to each other
I feel like stabilizing resin is what Nate meant. You soak your porous material under a vacuum. Then it pushes it all in when you release the vacuum. The resin doesn't cure until you bake it. Talk to Peter Brown about his stablelizing setup.
Yay! I have been waiting for the annual pumpkin video!
The editing was genius, i never laughed so much in a youtube video, thanks for this
