Spacing	Hills: 2–3 seeds per hill, thin to 2; hills 4–6 ft / 1.2–1.8 m apart. Rows: plants 3–5 ft / 0.9–1.5 m; rows 6–10 ft / 1.8–3 m.
Germination	~5–10 days at ~70–95°F / 21–35°C

Pro tip: Train vines onto mulch or landscape fabric to keep fruit clean and reduce rot. Limit each plant to 2–3 developing pumpkins for larger, more uniform results; water deeply during fruit set.
