Picking and storing pumpkins.
Cut pumpkins from the the vine with good clippers or a sharp knife while leaving about 4 inches of stem. This will protect your pumpkin from insects or rot. You’ll also want to clean your pumpkin with water and soap and then dry with an old towel. To cure your pumpkin, store it in a warm place for a week to ten days. This will harden the skin and help it keep for around three months.
