    Pumpkin harvest in the not-too-distant future!
    Varieties I am growing:
    -Champion PMR
    -Rival PMR
    -Cargo PMR
    -Igor
    -Knuckle Head
    -Blanco
    -Cinnamon Girl PMR

    This is my first year doing a real pumpkin patch and so far so good.
    My wife got a bunch of pumpkins last year for Halloween and after Halloween I just threw them up into the garden just to see what would grow.
    And boy did I get a bunch to germinate!!
    I had so many I was able to use my neighbors yard to start the patch.

    You give me hope! I’m starting my very first attempt on a little backyard pumpkin patch, and I’m always so nervous for them. I’m planting one row each of Howden, Sugar, and Casper. I check on them everyday for pests and make sure they have enough water and sunlight. I hope to have a successful little pumpkin patch like you did in this video. Thanks to you and seeing your trial and errors, I have more of an idea on what to look out for! Love your videos!

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  2 роки тому +1

    • @crystal_roses
      @crystal_roses 2 роки тому +1

      @@lucasgrowsbestyt I’m growing in my backyard in NE. My first attempt, I only got 2 and the first freeze killed them before they could even turn orange. But this time I think I got them germinated and planted as early as I could. Very excited. :)

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  2 роки тому

      Thanks Krystal! That's too bad, yeah I can see the humidity and heat making it more difficult. I recommend choosing heat-tolerant and powder mildew resistant varieties. See which varieties work, keep growing those, and discontinue the rest.

  • @ronaldocolosio7920

    Hello‚ I'm looking for a pumpkin for Halloween but make sure it's a good size. Do you think that the sugar pie pumpkin meets that characteristic? what variety is the one you used beforehand thank you very much for your answer

  • @CVenza

    How about container planting for pumpkins? Got any tips for us? What would happen if the vines were controlled by cutting them back some? Thank you!

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  Рік тому

      It's definitely possible, especially for the smaller varieties. In general I think pumpkins do better in the ground. Add lots of compost and nutrients to your pot and have a drip system set up. Pumpkins are very heavy feeders and drinkers! I wouldn't recommend cutting back the vines, that increases chance of disease and means less photosynthesis for your pumpkins.

    It was a great pumpkin year for us too. Such a relief after some disappointment with summer type squashes. Pie pumpkins grew literally like weeds for us this year. Sadly our favorites, the Jack B Little did not do as well. We only got 3 of those this year unfortunately

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt

    What do you do with a ton of pumpkins? I love winter squash but pumpkins are decorative and not good eating. I'd love to grow a ton of the gourmet eating squash but dont have much space. Can you sell them for haloween decor ? idk how easy that would be. Nice haul anyways.

    • @valamaas
      @valamaas 2 роки тому +1

      I'm growing Crookneck squash. Look up vertical growing with stake.
      Spring in Australia. So seedlings ATM.

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  2 роки тому +2

      I sold most of them at a local auction. Didn't sell for a ton, but I'm glad they'll find a home. I grow pumpkins for Halloween, not eating, although I did grow some pie pumpkins.

    Какие красивые тыквы! Я их не люблю и даже не представляю, что из них можно приготовить кроме молочной рисоао-тыквенной каши. Я выращиваю тыкву только для борьбы с сорняками - там где растет мощная длинроплетистая тыква, не растут сорняки . У Вас тыква кустовая , и всё заросли травой. У тыквы люблю только семена, поэтому сажаю только один сорт Голосемянную, у семян которой нет оболочки. Очень вкусные жаренные. А куда Вы деваете такое большое количестао тыкв и кабачков?
