compact pumpkin plants
I've managed to find some varieties of compact pumpkin seeds.
These varieties produce very tiny pumpkins; ones that would be used for decoration. Are pumpkins that are this small able to be used in cooking, or would you advise against it?
I'm looking for what's considered a small variety of
pumpkin (4-8 pounds). I'm also looking for a compact/bush
variety of these pumpkins in seed form.
Now I've managed to find some that are labeled as "semi-bush" types in their growth patterns. I've never grown pumpkins so what does it mean when it refers to the growth patterns of these pumpkins as semi-bush?
Would you have to train the vines of these semi-bush varieties to climb a trellis and/or stake them?
Can these semi-bush varieties be grown in containers?
If so, what size container (please specify this information
in gallons) would you use, and how many pumpkin plants could you plant per container?
Below are the links for the varieties I've managed to find
