Sugar Pie Pumpkin – The "Sweetest Selection" for Smooth Purees and Decadent Autumn Soups

Shop the highest quality Sugar Pie Pumpkin seeds for a harvest that brings the "sweet life" to your kitchen. When it comes to a dedicated baking variety, Sugar Pie is the "Kitchen Specialist."Β While similar to the Small Sugar, this variety has been meticulously selected for its exceptionally smooth texture and an even higher concentration of natural sugars. At The Seed Guy, we recommend this variety because it is the premier choice for creating velvety purees that act as the perfect base for savory pumpkin soup to sweet cheesecakes.

In the garden, Sugar Pie is a delight to grow, producing uniform 4-to-5-pound fruits that are as cute as they are delicious. Because the fruits are smaller, the vines can often be trellised if you have a sturdy enough support, making them a great option for "vertical gardening." It is a fantastic companion plant for corn and buckwheat, which helps keep the soil nutrient-dense. At The Seed Guy, our seeds are tested for elite germination, ensuring you get a plentiful harvest of sweet, orange gems that make every meal feel like a special occasion.

Sugar Pie Pumpkin Planting Instructions:

1. When to Plant: Sow outdoors when all danger of frost has passed and the soil is warm. These are one of the faster-maturing pumpkin varieties, often ready in under 100 days.

2. Preparation: Prepare a sunny spot with plenty of room. Mix a shovelful of compost into each planting hill. Pumpkins love "sweet" soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8.

3. Sowing: Plant 3 seeds per hill, 1 inch deep. Keep the soil moist to ensure even germination. Once the vines start to run, they will quickly cover the ground, so make sure they have a clear path to grow.

4. Care: Deep, consistent watering is the secret to sweet pumpkins. If the plant gets stressed by drought, the fruit can become less flavorful. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers once the plant starts to bloom, as you want the energy going into the fruit, not just more leaves.

5. Pests and Diseases: Look out for Squash Bugs hiding under the leaves. To prevent mildew, avoid overhead watering and try to keep the fruit off the damp soil using mulch or a small platform. Harvest when the vines die back and the rind is tough.

Botanical Name: Cucurbita pepo
