Atlantic Giant, Pumpkin

Heirloom Pumpkin. | C. Maxima | QTY: 20 Seeds | 120 Days

Atlantic Giant, a variety which has set the record of over a ton of pumpkin in contests amazes folks nationwide.  That’s a lot of pumpkin!!!  Without special care, yours probably won’t come close but you’ll harvest huge pumpkins anyway.  Here in Northern Minnesota, ours usually weigh in at around 200 pounds or a little better, although the world record in 2023 was awarded to a pumpkin grower in Anoka, Mn, who grew a pumpkin weighing over 2,700 pounds.  Fun though.  Thick meat!
