I grew out the Emerald Naked-Seeded Pumpkin from the Experimental Farm Network this last summer. They did fairly well until August, then succumb quickly to Powdery Mildew. I didn’t take a lot of pictures of them.
While I love eating Pumpkin seeds, saving these for seed can be quite difficult. The primary issue is that the seeds don’t dry very well and will quickly mold, if there is any humidity. I lost some of my very best seed to mold, despite working to dry them well. I would love to grow this variety again, but am not sure how I would better dry the seed for future planting.
