Cucurbita moschata Lunga di Napoli BIO

Green moschata with lighter stripes, unusually large size.

The well-known Italian variety is practically a giant butternut, weighing 6-15 kg, in exceptional cases up to over 20 kg.

Lunga di Napoli is a top edible pumpkin, massive flesh, dark orange and very firm.

For cultivation in Central Europe, pre-cultivation is recommended in order to harvest fruit that is as fully ripe as possible.

Ripening time: 120 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.
