How can I make sure my pumpkin plants flower?

Sunday, December 30th, 2007
Happenstance asked:


I planted pumpkin seeds about two months ago and they have sprouted but I don’t see any more than two baby leaves on each plant. Do they need more water or more nitrogen?
How else can you encourage plants to flourish?

What is the difference between a sugar pumpkin and a regular pumpkin (like you make into a jack-0-lantern)?

Peaches asked:


I’ve been researching recipes online for fresh pumpkin and all of the recipes I’ve found call for a medium sugar pumpkin. Is a regular, garden variety, Halloween-type pumpkin interchangeable in recipes with a sugar pumpkin? I have two of them (not cut into jack-0-lanterns) and would like to cook them.

grannywinkie asked:


I am having a panic attack. My last chocolate covered cherry is sitting here just looking at me. If I eat it, there will be no more chocolate. My pumpkin pie is also gone. At holiday season, I must have pumpkin in place of chocolate. Is anyone else having withdrawl symptoms? Do you want to talk? The stores open in the morning, I must find a way to stay home. I NEED SOMETHING, do you need chocolate or pumpkin?

About how many days will a carved pumpkin last before it begins to mold?

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007
Bad Seed asked:


My friend wants to have a pumpkin-carving party on the 25th but I dont’ think a pumpkin carved on the 25th will hold much asthetic value by the 31st. Pumpkin carving is the most creative thing I do all year - I get really into it. However, I only want to carve one pumpkin. Should I carve it at the party or is there a good chance it won’t make it to Halloween?

If I use fresh pumpkin to make pumpkin bread, do I need to cook it first or do I just puree it raw? Thanks for the help!
