Cucurbita moschata Sonca

Cucurbita moschata Sonca

Wonderful selection of Hungarian origin.

Sonca, the abbreviation for Sonkatök = ham squash, is initially green, then turns bright orange when fully ripe.

The variety produces crops quite early, fruits are produced in large numbers and, at 1-1.5 kg, are the ideal portion size. The pulp is of excellent quality, dark orange, massive and firm.

In order to be able to harvest fully ripe fruits, we recommend pre-cultivation and planting.

Ripening time: 110 days.

Moderate trailing behavior.

Cucurbita moschata require a lot of heat and is therefore better to be pre-cultivated. Varieties with a ripening time of up to 110 days also thrive in cold regions.

Optimum germination at 24-30o C. When sowing stick the pointed side of the seed down or lay them flat. Do not keep the seed too moist. After germination, place in a brighter and cooler place.

The planting distance for pumpkins depends on the trailing behavior.

Possible pests: snails, birds, mice, lice, powdery mildew, virus.

 

Supplied as raw (normal) seed.
