When is the best season to grow pumpkins? What month is usually the best?

Pumpkin planting season should generally be carried out between the two solar terms of Tomb-Sweeping Day and Grain Rain in spring. In April-May, if plastic film mulching sowing or greenhouse seedling raising is carried out, the sowing time can be earlier, and the pumpkin eaten in the previous year can be directly sown in the next year without buying seeds.

Every household will plant pumpkins, which will cover the whole roof in midsummer. If there is enough sunshine, its output will be much higher. A pumpkin may grow hundreds of pounds. Leave the pumpkin seeds you ate last year and sow them directly the next year. There is no need to buy seeds at all.

Pumpkin planting season

Pumpkin planting season should generally be carried out between the two solar terms of Tomb-Sweeping Day and Grain Rain in spring. In April-May, if plastic film mulching sowing or greenhouse seedling raising is carried out, the sowing time can be earlier, and early-maturing, cold-resistant and high-yield varieties should be selected for spring sowing.
