About -

Create a garden brimming with hearty, festive flavors using Richgrow Seeds Winter Squash (Round Pumpkin) F1 Hybrid Seeds, a non-GMO F1 hybrid variety (Cucurbita maxima), perfect for home gardeners and farmers craving robust, high-yielding harvests at an unbeatable price! Known as Round Pumpkin or Winter Squash, this vigorous vine yields large, round fruits, measuring 20–30 cm in diameter and weighing 2.5–4 kg, with a smooth, deep green rind accented by subtle stripes and a sweet, creamy orange flesh ideal for roasting, soups, pies, or traditional dishes like pumpkin halwa, ready to harvest in 85–95 days. Loaded with vitamins A, C, E, beta-carotene, and minerals like potassium, these pumpkins boost immunity, promote eye health, and provide antioxidant-rich nutrition for heart wellness. The sprawling, resilient vines, growing 3–5 meters, are resistant to pests like squash bugs and diseases such as powdery mildew, ensuring low-maintenance growth in warm to mild climates, with optimal sowing during late summer to early fall (July–October) across Pan-India, especially in states like Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu, as noted in our prior sowing discussions (April 10, 2025). Sow 2–3 seeds at a 2–3 cm depth in well-drained, fertile loamy soil (50% garden soil, 30% compost, 20% coco peat, pH 6.0–7.5) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 1–1.5 meters apart in rows 2–3 meters wide, after soaking seeds for 12–24 hours to achieve 85% germination within 7–14 days. Provide trellises or ample ground space, keep soil moist with regular watering (1–2 liters per plant daily), and fertilize with organic compost or vermicompost every 2–3 weeks; hand-pollinate during cloudy weather to ensure fruit set. Harvest when rinds harden and colors deepen, using neem oil for pests like aphids or beetles. Store unopened packets in a cool, dry place for up to 2 years, and keep harvested pumpkins in a dry, ventilated area for months of freshness. Available in Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (10–15 seeds), Standard Packet, Professional Pack (200–250 grams), or custom bulk orders, all in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets with an 85% germination rate, designed for your sustainable vision at www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com.
