When to plant pumpkin in La Paz

In La Paz, pumpkin: sow seedlings around 31 August for the greenhouse and around 21 September for open ground; plant into a greenhouse around 7 October; plant out into open ground around 28 October.

Last spring frost around 21 October, first autumn frost around 20 April. Frost-free days: 181 days.

The dates follow the Greenly calendar: open ground a week after the last frost once the soil is warm enough for the crop, frost-hardy crops three weeks before it, an unheated greenhouse three weeks earlier, seedlings sown so they are ready on the day. In a cold year allow a week or two more.
