Cucurbita moschata Dickenson
Cucurbita moschata Dickenson
This variety is often grown for industry because of its massive pulp.
Dickenson is 8-12 kg, heavy nutmeg, roundish-elongated with excellent pulp. The shape, color and slight ribbing also make it very attractive, but unfortunately it requires warmth.
Ripening time: 120 days.
Strong vining 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 vining behavior.
Possible pests: snails, birds, mice, lice, powdery mildew, virus.
Supplied as raw (normal) seed.
