The plant has a bushy growth habit and spreads only a little, while producing abundantly: the supplier reports more than 10 fruits per plant. The fruit skin is smooth and straw-yellow with broad green stripes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #5C3727; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e bushy, slightly spreading\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e straw-yellow with green stripes, hull-free seeds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSow in pots:\u003c\/strong\u003e late April - May, at 20–22°C\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSow outdoors \/ transplant:\u003c\/strong\u003e after the last frosts, from May 15–20\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e August - October, before frost\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun, humus-rich, fertile soil\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e easy\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSeeds per packet:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #5C3727; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eWhat makes this variety special\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost pumpkins are grown for their flesh, with the seeds as an extra. Lady Godiva is the opposite: its flesh is pale orange and average in quality, while the main harvest is its green, hull-free seeds. No shelling is needed; simply rinse and dry them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts bushy growth habit means it takes up less space than trailing varieties, though it still needs plenty of room. The flowers are also edible. A few plants can provide enough seeds to last all winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #5C3727; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eGrowing step by step\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #656B39;\"\u003eSowing in pots (late April - May):\u003c\/strong\u003e Sow one seed per pot, about 8–10 cm in diameter, at a depth of 2–3 cm. Seeds need warmth to germinate (about 20–22°C), and seedlings emerge after 10–15 days. Do not overwater the growing medium - excess moisture can easily cause the sprouts to rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #656B39;\"\u003eSowing outdoors:\u003c\/strong\u003e From the second half of May, after the last frosts, seeds can be sown directly in their permanent location, 2–3 per planting spot, then thinned to leave the strongest plant. The harvest will be slightly later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #656B39;\"\u003eTransplanting (after May 15–20):\u003c\/strong\u003e Transplant seedlings after the last frosts, spacing them about 1–1.2 m apart, preferably into holes filled with compost. Pumpkins like a sunny spot and soil rich in organic matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"color: #656B39;\"\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e During dry spells, water generously at the base of the plant. Pruning is not necessary. If the plant flowers but does not set fruit, this may be due to a lack of pollinators or hot weather - flowering plants that attract pollinators nearby and mulch can help in both cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #5C3727; margin-top: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 0.5em;\"\u003eUses\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarvest the fruit toward the end of the season, when the leaves are drying and the stem is dry, always before the first frosts. The seeds continue to ripen inside the fruit, so it is worth storing the pumpkins for a few weeks and removing the seeds later, for example in November.
