The Messenger of Allah, the Prophet Muhammad, after hearing from the Almighty himself an entertaining story about the Pumpkin tree, was so imbued with the usefulness of the vegetable that the Pumpkin became his favorite dish. The fruits, seeds, leaves, flowers of the plant contain a lot of useful things for humans. Scientists say that Pumpkin contributes to the development of cerebral convolutions, thereby forming Homo sapiens
History in the Qur'an
For those who believe in the existence of Allah, he always comes to the rescue. He once saved a man who was swallowed by a whale. After an unpleasant journey in the stomach of a whale, a person was so exhausted that, having fallen on the earth with the assistance of Allah, he could not move his arm or leg. He lay on the shore, attacked by flocks of annoying flies.
The second time Allah showed mercy to this person, creating the Pumpkin tree. The huge leaves of the tree created a shadow for the poor fellow; the aroma of the plant drove away annoying flies, and the flowers and fruits of the tree fed the sick person, adding vital energy to his body.
For many centuries, scholars of the Koran have been arguing about this story. After all, the Pumpkin tree does not exist in nature. Maybe Allah was talking about some other tree?
But the true followers of the Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him, insist that it was about the Pumpkin, a herb that grows so quickly, sheltering the earth from the sun's rays with its large rough leaves, that God ranked him among the trees that give man a saving cool.

Growing
I think that every Russian has seen the Pumpkin at least once in his life, and therefore it is unnecessary to spend time describing the plant and its fruits. Let us only recall the main points of the successful cultivation of this divine miracle.
The heat-loving pumpkin can be grown through seedlings, or the seeds can be betrayed to open ground when the earth is already sufficiently warmed up by the sun. It takes three months to get the harvest, based on this, you can plan the time for sowing seeds.
The soil for the plant needs fertile, because a powerful bush needs rich nutrition. Therefore, pumpkin is often planted next to the compost heap.
With late sowing, it is required to thoroughly wet the soil, since in addition to heat, the plant needs a lot of moisture.
Caring for the Pumpkin consists in regular watering with warm water, periodic mineral dressings, loosening the soil (mulching is encouraged), protecting the fruits from wet soil (arranging substrates).
