On the fourth side the march of modern improvement has broken in, and has va ried and brightened the scene by means of a conservatory, forming an entrance to the room through a winter-garden of rare plants and flowers.
For planting seeds directly into the garden, you should plant 4 or 5 seeds in a small hill of soil. Considering how much space pumpkin plants take, keep your hills at least 10 feet apart. They should be planted in a sunny area away from anything that will shade them.The vines can grow up to 30 feet long, so plan your garden space with lots of room to spare.n loose soil, plant pumpkin seeds in small pots about an inch below the surface. Keep the soil moist and the seeds should sprout in between 7 to 14 days. They will need lots of sun while they are growing.
Vining pumpkins require a minimum of 50 to 100 square feet per hill. Plant seeds one inch deep (four or five seeds per hill). Allow 5 to 6 feet between hills, spaced in rows 10 to 15 feet apart. When the young plants are well-established, thin each hill to the best two or three plants.
