Re: Saving Seeds for next year???



To save your seeds,  remove them from the pumpkin, 
clean them off with water, then dry them.
you can set them on out on a piece of newspaper in a
warm dry place.  make sure they are completely dry.
like 2-3 weeks sitting out on your kitchen counter.
some people put them on papertowels on a cookie sheet
in their oven with just the light on.  if you do this
just make sure that there is a note on the oven- so no
one turns it on preheat to cook something. 

You can cut your pumpkin then display it - then later
remove the seeds.  you can not take out the seeds and
then display it... because it will rot quickly... like
within a few days. 
sometime if it is displayed in a warm area the seeds
will germinate inside.

How do you save seeds to grow again.  When do you
remove them from the pumpkin?  Can it be cut off
displayed and then used as a source for seeds?  Etc.
Etc.   Thanks
