pumpkins that were parcialy frozen by cold temperatures.

1 Answer

Answer :

The only way to know for sure it to wash it down good and cut it.  If you are going to cook it and inside is still solid you will know..... We had frost here 5 times and real heavy that went down to 28 and the pumpkin is still good and solid.  You can rinse and save some seeds for next year.  They love to grow in very old horse or cow manure.
