Just thought I'd start a Halloween pumpkin thread since we're gonna be carving one this weekend.

Anyone else carving pumpkins?

I'm gonna bake the seeds and eat them. was wondering if i could roast them in cannabutter in some way, too. to make halloween thc friendly.

If you store them in a cool, dry airy place they can last from 2-6 months. Keep them off the ground. :)
 
I have four that are all drawn out ready to carve, be doing it in the next few days.

This is one that I did last year.

Hey, I have that same kit. Lol. I usually do mine a week and a half before candy nite. A tip to making them last is to coat the inside with petroleum jelly. I like to put a black light inside my larger carvings for a different effect. It's color is really cool, especially if you peel the outer skin from the pumpkin.
