Pumpkin - Polar Bear F1 - 6 Industry Quality Seeds - Maxim treated (fungicide protection)

Polar Bear is a beautiful extra-large white pumpkin that retains its colour after maturity in the field, at market and in decorative displays. Long, vigorous vines produce fruit that can weigh up to 16 kg dependent upon growing conditions. Expect 1 or 2 fruit per vine on average. 

For the best results, it’s preferable to sow pumpkin seeds indoors and plant out into the garden once the risk of frost has passed. To enjoy an earlier crop, or if you live in a cooler climate, sowing pumpkin seeds in mid-to-late April is ideal. Sow two seeds into a 8 cm pot by pushing them, on their side, approximately 2 cm into the compost. Keep the pots at 20C in a propagator or plastic bag until germination, which should take place about a week to ten days later. If both seeds germinate, you can either thin out the weaker seedling or separate the two plants and pot them into separate pots to give them adequate room to grow. Continue to grow in pots indoors and move them into slightly bigger pots each time the roots have filled the pot. Gradually acclimatise them to the outdoors by leaving them outside during the day. Plant them outside where you intend them to grow once the risk of frost has passed.

If you’re transplanting your pumpkin plants into the soil, its best to prepare the ground ahead of time. This can be done in April by adding a generous helping of compost or manure to the ground and mixing it in. Choose a location which is in full sun and has good drainage to give the plants the best chance to thrive. If transplanting more than one plant, leave as much space as possible between plants, at least 1.5 m. Pile the soil into mounds at the desired distances and plant each pumpkin plant on top of the mound for good drainage. Water generously until the plants become established and give fertiliser a few weeks after planting. You shouldn’t need to water the plants again unless conditions become particularly dry. Unruly stems can be trained to wrap around the plant if overgrowth becomes an issue.

If you wish to sow your pumpkin directly into the soil in the garden then it’s best to wait until mid-May before sowing the seeds. Sow two seeds 3 cm deep and keep them warm for two weeks by covering the soil with either a cloche or plastic wrap. After germination, thin the seedlings leaving only the strongest plant. 

Pumpkins are vulnerable to pests and diseases, particular powdery mildew, so keep an eye on your plant for any changes or infestations. These seeds have a blue coating which refers to the fact they have been treated for early season fungicide protection.  If the weather is cooler, failed pollination may result in small fruits rotting spontaneously. This is untreatable and will remedy itself once the weather improves and pollination resumes. Just pick off and dispose of the rotten fruits.

If you are focusing on size rather than quantity then limit your plant to growing just one fruit. If multiple fruits appear, simply pick off the smaller fruits, allowing your plant to focus its energies on a singular pumpkin. 

All being well, your pumpkin(s) should be ready for harvesting roughly four - five months after sowing. You will know if the fruit is ready to be harvested by tapping the skin of your pumpkin. If the skin is hard and it sounds hollow then the fruit is ready. Use pruning shears or a sharp knife to cut the fruit, leaving approximately 10 cm of stem for longevity of shelf life.
