Pumpkin



Pumpkins are a crafting material that grow on grass. They can be planted manually by the player year-round by purchasing Pumpkin Seeds from the Dryad NPC and placing them on grass. They also grow naturally in random grass locations during the Halloween and seasonal events.

Harvesting fully grown Pumpkins during the Halloween season will rarely yield a Magical Pumpkin Seed, which is used to summon the Squashling pet.

Pumpkin Seeds each require two blocks width and two blocks height to grow Pumpkins.

Tips

 * An easy way to farm Pumpkins during the Halloween season is to place strips of grass with Dart Traps firing just above them to destroy anything naturally growing on top of the grass. This will allow Pumpkins to grow instead, as Dart Traps do not destroy Pumpkins.
 * Dedicated farming, like with this method, may cause the Magical Pumpkin Seed to be obtained much faster.
 * It may be a good idea to start farming Pumpkins in pre-Hardmode so the player has access to a stock of Pumpkins for Pumpkin Moon Medallions in Hardmode.
 * Making a new world during Halloween can give the player an edge in the early game, as Pumpkins spawn naturally, and the Pumpkin armor made from them can last all the way until the Eye of Cthulhu.
 * The Golden Bug Net can be used to harvest pumpkins, as it will only dislodge fully-grown pumpkins and pass through any others. This allows one to run up and down the rows, swinging the net to pick only the fully-grown pumpkins.
