Cucurbita pepo Knuckle Head F1 is a unique and eye-catching Halloween pumpkin that instantly draws attention with its spectacular warts and robust shape. This variety produces round, medium to large pumpkins weighing 5–8 kg (11–17 lbs), ideal for decoration, lanterns, and themed autumn displays. With its distinctive appearance and reliable growth, Knuckle Head F1 is a favorite among gardeners and decorators looking for something special for Halloween and autumn decorations.
Knuckle Head F1 is distinguished by its unique warty pattern, which gives each fruit a unique and decorative appearance. The fruits are firm, beautifully round, and have a deep orange color typical of Halloween pumpkins. This makes them perfect for lanterns, autumn decorations, or creative garden projects.
The plants have a moderately vining habit, so they require sufficient space to develop optimally, yet remain manageable for hobby gardeners. For healthy development and consistent fruit production, it is recommended to provide approximately 2 square meters per plant.
Knuckle Head F1 matures in approximately 105 days, making it a reliable variety for autumn harvest. Thanks to the strong and healthy plants, the yield is consistent and suitable for gardeners who want to use it both for decoration and for culinary purposes. Although this variety is primarily valued for its ornamental value, the flesh can also be used in soups or stews, provided the warts are properly removed.
Knuckle Head F1 grows best in warm, well-drained soil. For an optimal start, the seeds can be pre-sown from late April or directly sown from early May.
Optimal germination occurs at 24–30°C. When sowing, it's important to hold the pointed end of the seed downward or lay it flat, and avoid keeping the seed too moist. After germination, the seedlings can be moved to a brighter, cooler location to develop strong, healthy plants.
Knuckle Head F1 has a moderately vigorous habit, meaning the plants require space for both vertical and horizontal growth. The recommended planting distance is approximately 2 square meters per plant, ensuring each pumpkin receives sufficient air, sunlight, and nutrients for optimal development. This compact yet robust growth habit makes the variety suitable for both hobby gardens and small commercial plots.
Knuckle Head F1 is ideal for:
Halloween decoration, thanks to the striking warts and the classic orange color.
Autumn gardens and floral art, where the unique texture is an eye-catcher.
Educational projects, for example for children to learn about plants and harvesting.
Small culinary uses, such as pumpkin soup or puree, provided the warts are removed.
The ornamental value of Knuckle Head F1 is high, and the variety gives a spectacular visual effect that is difficult to match with standard Halloween pumpkins.
