25 SEEDS. Cucurbita maxima. 85 - 90 days. Annual. Heirloom. Zones 3 - 11. Produces uniform, large, 8 - 10" long fruits with bright orange, firm, smooth-textured flesh and tan skins. Heavy yielding and stores well! Excellent in sweet or savory dishes. Directly sow 1 - 2 seeds 1" deep and 36" apart in rich, warm soil after all danger of frost has passed. Firm lightly and keep evenly moist at the soil level throughout the growing season, especially during dry spells. Full sun. Germinates in 10 - 14 days. Thin to the strongest seedling when two sets of leaves appear. Harvest when the fruit has dull skin that is too hard to pierce with your thumbnail. Leave 2 - 3" of the stem when cutting it from the vine. Allow to cure for one week to harden skin and store in a cool, dry place.
