I thought about planting pumpkins, and I really don’t remember why I didn’t. I certainly will next year.

'Connecticut Field' makes for HUGE Jack-O'-Lanterns; a classic carving pumpkin with sturdy handles. Plant some Pie Pumpkin too, for 'meat' and roasted pumpkin seeds. I like 'Sugar Pie.'

I had a few pie-types turn up in my compost pile this season, which was a bonus. After last year's absolute GLUT of pumpkin, I have plenty in the freezer for the next few years. :)

They take up an enormous amount of space--the vines really spread out!
