MY PUMPKIN PATCH + PUMPKIN HISTORY


Hey all my blog readers of Kyle's Free space what's??? Today i am going to blogging about my pumpkin patch. My mom gave me some pumpkin seeds, I dug a hole placed them in then watered them. I hope they grow fast so I can either eat them or carve them. It takes 182 days for them to grow. I am going to be posting some pictures as they grow. I really wish they had a money seed that grows a money plant.

I am excited about having a pumpkin patch. It gives me the feeling to know I planted those. I will post a picture later of what it looks like with nothing there. Then In 125 days I will post how they are starting to look then on the 182 day. I will post what they look like fully grown. I think all my followers should buy some pumpkin seeds and plant them like I did well this is going to be it for today bye :) Oh here is the complete history about pumpkins

 

 

Pumpkin is the name of a plant that refers to certain cultivars of squash, most commonly those of Cucurbita pepo, that are round, with smooth, slightly ribbed skin and deep yellow to orange coloration. The thick shell contains the seeds and pulp. Some exceptionally large cultivars of squash with similar appearance have also been derived from Cucurbita maxima. Specific cultivars of winter squash derived from other species, including C. argyrosperma, and C. moschata, are also sometimes called "pumpkin". In New Zealand and Australian English, the term "pumpkin" generally refers to the broader category called winter squash elsewhere.

 

Pumpkins, like other squash, are native to North America. Pumpkins are widely grown for commercial use, and are used both in food and recreation. Pumpkin pie, for instance, is a traditional part of Thanksgiving meals in the United States, although commercially canned pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie fillings are usually made from different kinds of winter squash than the pumpkins frequently carved as jack o'lanterns for decoration around Halloween
