I normally try and grow two pumpkins to carve on Halloween. But this year I’ve challenged myself to see if I can grow a Giant Pumpkin!
The seeds were obtained from a Championship pumpkin in the UK (Douglas Smith – 217kg)
Giant Pumpkin
It has taken me four weeks to get the giant pumpkin seeds to germinate… and after trying with 7 seeds, I’ve managed to get two to germinate!
After transplanting into compost, (the germination method is a secret!) here are photos of Day 1 and Day 2.
