This season, however, a single plant sprouted. Since mass produced pumpkins are hybrids, most of its energy went into growing foliage, ultimately about twelve feet of vines end to end. It was so beautiful I decided to see what would happen.
A total of eight small gourds came as a complete surprise. I enjoyed getting silly with them.
Should I try roasting the seeds? Or maybe even roasting the shells to see if the insides are good eating?

DeleteRoast some, plant some. You can be your own source for your pumpkins ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea!
DeleteWhen the kids were little we always roasted the seeds, however, these days I find it better to just buy when I want them. lol....Wow woman, look at those cool pumpkins. Along with giving up roasting the seeds I gave up carving and we started painting them. When you get older, or at least when I got older, easier became my way to go
ReplyDeleteWow, 8!!!!! That's really a good yield I think? They're pretty!!
