Halloween seed mix
This is the perfect blend of Halloween pumpkin seeds for the Halloween Season! This mix contains Bat Wing pumpkin seeds (treated), Casperita (little ghost) pumpkin seeds, Black Kat pumpkin seeds, and Jack O Lantern seeds (treated). You will have a mix of traditional orange Howden-type pumpkins, mini black and white pumpkins, and an orange/black hybrid variety.
**This mix may contain treated seeds (Batwing pumpkin). They are treated with a sulfur-based fungicide (anti-fungal) that will prevent seed disease but will also prevent fungus and disease on your pumpkin plants as they grow due to the treatment. This improves root health, plant life, and the potential for higher and quicker yields. Any plant/fruit grown from treated seeds is 100% safe for consumption.
