A small pumpkin with delectable flesh. The pumpkin 'Baby Bear' (Cucurbita pepo) is perfect for making pumpkin pie. The nearly skinless seeds are good for roasting. The plant produces approximately six to ten fruits that are 12 to 15 cm large. Sow the vegetable seeds directly in the open ground in a seed bed from late April to mid-June. Plant the squash in fertile soil. You can harvest it in September.
Space the squash seeds 80 cm apart. Space the rows at a distance of 80 cm. Plant at a depth of 0.5 to 1 cm. Plant the squash in a nice spot in full sun. After sowing, water the seeds adequately. The vegetable seeds come in a bag containing approximately 1.5 grams. This is enough to sow 3 square metres.
