Snowball F1 Pumpkin seeds
Snowball F1 pumpkins are mid-size pumpkin that has smooth ribbing, and a bright white exterior. The flesh inside is an off-white almost pale yellow. The Snowball pumpkin is almost a perfect round shape, hence the name. Although most white pumpkin varieties begin yellow if left on the vine with constant sun exposure, the snowball holds its ivory color even under the sun's stressful rays.
Each pumpkin is anywhere between 1.5 to 3 pounds.
These are great for just about everything from autumn displays to diverse jack-o-lanterns. Since the outside and inside are a striking white color, these are great for stuffing and cooking on low in the crockpot. Low and slow helps to keep the white color true.
Since these are mid-sized, they are also great for the trellis. Since they are lightweight, no additional support will be needed to suspend them.
