Vining varieties should have 4-5 seeds planted in small hills(mounds)in loamy soil. The hills should have a spacing of about 5-6 ft. depending on the variety. Once plants are well established, thin each hill to the best two to three plants.

Semi-bush pumpkins should be planted four to five seeds per hill. Each hill should be four feet apart with eight feet between rows. Once plants are well established, thin each hill to the best two to three plants.
