The four ways to know your pumpkin is ripe is.

1.See what colour it is. The chances are if your pumpkin is orange all the way around. But on the other hand some pumpkins are completely green.

2.Give the pumpkin a good thump or slap. If it sounds hollow then it's ripe.

3.If the skin on the pumpkin is hard then you know it's ripe. Use a fingernail and gently try to puncture the pumpkin's skin. If the skin dents but does not puncture, the pumpkin is ripe.

4.If the stem above the pumpkin starts to turn hard then it is ripe.

The carved pumpkin can last up to a week outside in cooler weather. Spraying the pumpkin inside and outside with WD40 can preserve the pumpkin a couple of days longer.
