Last weekend I got stuck into the pumpkin patch & harvested the following...
And then these...
Would you believe that there are still more growing on the vines?
This is my first attempt at pumpkins & I hope to do it all again next year.
I've made a few batches of soup, given away a few & for the rest, I'll store them on their sides so no moisture can collect around the stalks, once they have sat in the sun for a week.
Dad said to coat the stems with parrafin wax but have had no luck in finding any.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see how long they keep.
