Grow a garden filled with Blue Jarrahdale Pumpkins, from freshly harvested Cucurbita maxima seeds. Blue Jarrahdale is an heirloom that produces 10 to 14 inch pumpkins with pale gray, almost green-blue skin. Each Pumpkin plant will produce about 3 to 5 fruits per vine & each fruit will weigh about 6 to 12 pounds each. The plants themselves will grow to a mature height of only 12 to 24 inches tall and spreads to a varying length of 10 to 15 feet long. Pumpkins are popularly used for pies and the Blue Jarrahdale Pumpkin makes a great pie with its stringless, orange flesh.
Sowing The Seed
Pumpkins are best established directly outdoors in the summer. Be sure to select a large enough area for the plants to grow and vine outwards. Remove all unwanted plant life from your sowing area, turning the dirt, or replacing the dirt with a fresh soil. Create mounds of dirt or “hills” roughly 18 to 24 inches wide and at least 8 inches high. Sow 4 seeds per mound at a depth of 1 inch under topsoil. (See "Germination & Growth" for spacing and other growth habits)
Growing Conditions
Pumpkins enjoy the heat of summer and will thrive in temperatures that are above 75F. The soil should be rich in organic matter, but will also need to be well drained. To improve drainage, it is recommended to add a light compost to any hard, compacted soil in the sowing area. This will prevent the roots from rotting. Water the seeds daily with a mild setting so that the seeds and seedlings are kept moist until germination occurs.
Germination & Growth
Blue Jarrahdale Pumpkin seeds will begin to sprout open in roughly 7 to 14 days after sowing. The plants will grow to a mature height of 1 to 2 feet tall and 10 to 15 feet long. These plants will need a large area to grow outwards and can be spaced by hills or mounds of dirt, rather than rows. As explained above mounds should be 18 to 24 inches wide and at least 8 inches tall. Space each mound at least 6 to 8 feet apart from one another. When sprouts become visible, direct the vines outwards towards areas that do not contain other plant life.

I liked that they arrived quickly and were a fair price. It's much to early to plant these in my area,but can't wait .

I’m in love with the way these are turning out! Super easy to grow and I actually ended up having to give away several plants before they got too big because I didn’t expect almost every single seed to germinate.

So far so good… I have several small size pumpkins growing. I’m enjoying watching them grow. This is my first time growing these and I will be growing them again next year.

If pumpkins had a cool, mysterious cousin, it would be the Blue Jarrahdale. I planted these Seed Needs Blue Jarrahdale Pumpkin Seeds, and let me tell you, they’re like the James Bond of the pumpkin world. The bluish-gray skin makes them look like they’ve been moonlighting as secret agents. Growing them was a breeze, even for someone whose gardening skills are more "weed wrangler" than "green thumb." The best part? They make fantastic, quirky decorations and delicious pies that had my family wondering if I’d secretly hired a gourmet chef. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add a dash of intrigue to their pumpkin patch!
