Looking to plant some smaller pumpkins to give away this year. What is the best and easiest to plant? Also, how much room will I need for each plant? Thanks

What is smaller? 10-15lbs? We go 8 foot rows 5 feet apart. Each plant needs about 50sqf. There are a million hybrids to choose from. Choose a name you like and go with it.

Try Howdens they are about 45 lbs and are excellant tall carving pumpkins. These are very simmular to PA field pumpkins. Good luck

Magic Lantern, Gold Rush, Charisma, it all depends on who you are ordering them from. Find something PMR if you can.
