Let’s not quibble over whether this is a squash or a pumpkin; if it’s going to take up half your backyard, it can have a name of its own. The point is, it’s big. We sell only the true cultivar developed by Howard Dill of Windsor, Nova Scotia—not someone else’s imitation.  Dill's Atlantic Giant Pumpkin is a smash!  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e8 seeds\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #549b35;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePLANTING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eCucurbita maxima\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e7-10 days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGermination Temperature:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eOptimum soil temperatures 70-90\u003cb\u003eº\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eF\u003c\/span\u003e.
