Best Answer

Make sure you remove all the of the pulp so the inside is dry and not susceptible to molding quickly.

Keep your carved pumpkin in a dry location preferably indoors. Exposure to the elements, such as rain and freezing temperatures, will damage your pumpkin and encourage decay.

If you are really concerned, you can buy a Pumpkin Fresh spray online.

But on the other hand some pumpkins are completely green. 2.Give the pumpkin a good thump or slap. If it sounds hollow then it's ripe. 3.If the skin on the pumpkin is hard then you know it's ripe.
