Long shelf-life and soft
The organic 'Musquee de Provence' crookneck pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) is a heritage variety from France. It has a long shelf-life and it is also decorative. After ripening, the fruit's colour changes from green to a creamy orange. The 'Musquee de Provence' is deeply ribbed and has soft flesh. It is great to use for pumpkin soup. The vegetable seeds are organically certified. Plant the vegetable seeds from late April to mid-June in a seedbed on open ground. Then move them outdoors to fertile soil later. You can harvest 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 vegetable seeds in a nice spot in partial shade or full sun. After sowing, water the seeds adequately. The vegetable seeds come in a bag containing approximately 2.5 grams. This is enough to sow 7 square metres.
