Mustang PMR Pumpkin is a hybrid, jack-o-lantern pumpkin with some of the best powdery mildew resistance in field trials. This variety produces medium-sized, 22 lb pumpkins that are bright orange and perfect for carving. Pumpkins average 12" high with a 10" diameter.

Mustang PMR Pumpkin is very high-yielding and has a somewhat compact growing habit compared to other jack-o-lantern varieties. Fruits are consistently-uniform with smooth, straight sutures and a thick flesh. Fruits also have long, dark-green sturdy handles which makes for easy harvesting and handling.

Pumpkins may be direct seeded or transplanted, although we highly recommend direct seeding. To ensure a good stand, we recommend planting Seeds every 12" along the intended row. Once plants emerge, thin plants to one every 2 feet.

Pumpkins can be susceptible to plant diseases like downy mildew and powdery mildew if leaves receive excess moisture. As a result, we recommend using drip irrigation on winter squash to reduce plant moisture and feed plants more effectively. During periods of heavy rainfall, using a fungicide like Liquid Copper can help to alleviate disease pressure as well.

Pumpkins are a crop that will produce a one-time harvest at the end of the growing season. They should be harvested when plants die back and the fruits obtain their full color. Stem hardness is also an indication of fruit maturity. Once stems harden, fruits are ready for harvest using a set of pruning shears.

Pumpkins can be stored in a cool, dry place for several months, depending on variety and sugar content. Once fruits are harvested, remove the plants from the garden to prevent any fungal spores from overwintering and becoming a problem in future years. Proper crop rotation is extremely important with all pumpkin varieties to reduce disease and pest pressure.

Quality, not quantity.

Highly recommend planted 30 seeds and every plant grew about 2 to 3 pumpkins all in the 20-23lb range.
