David from Norton asked when is the best time to buy pumpkins for Halloween?  

I usually buy them once the weather cools off.   If it is warm, in my opinion, the pumpkins do not last as long...  There are other factors that go into the length of a pumpkins life span.  

Pumpkins last eight to 12 weeks after they are picked, so it'll stay fresh once you pick it up. This is out of the hot sun and freezing temps. (these are also uncarved)

As to carved pumpkins: They can last as little as a few days, so keep that in mind if you want to display your carved masterpiece on Halloween night.

And if you are Pumpkin Chunkin - your pumpkin doesn't have a chance.
