Growing Information

Growing Big Max Pumpkin

‘Big Max’ is an open-pollinated pumpkin prized for its enormous size and versatility. Huge fruits develop uniform pinkish-orange skin and bright orange flesh, making them impressive enough for pumpkin contests while remaining useful in the kitchen.

Start ‘Big Max’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly where conditions allow. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep, space plants about 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety needs plenty of warm growing time to develop its large fruits.

Ready to harvest in about 115 days, pick pumpkins once fully mature and the rind has developed its characteristic color and firmness.

Large, productive, and multipurpose, ‘Big Max’ is excellent for giant Jack-O’-Lanterns, pies, canning, freezing, and fall displays.
