Whether you prefer to carve, paint or put decals on your pumpkins, chances are you want your creation to last until Halloween.Kirkendall said when you are searching for your perfect pumpkin, look at the outside thoroughly. There are many varieties of pumpkins, from Cinderella pumpkins that appear more squat to wart pumpkins that look like they have “witch’s noses” all over them, but a good rule of thumb for all of them is to avoid holes, scratches or anything else that may make the pumpkin rot.

“You want to keep them dry,” Kirkendall said. “If they stay there on your front porch next to a plant you water, make sure that water doesn’t get on the pumpkin, because that will make them start rotting.”Much like water, direct sunlight can cause your pumpkin to wilt or grow soft, and your prized pick will not last until Halloween.

While pumpkins will inevitably rot once they are carved, Kirkendall said one way to postpone that process is to put Vaseline on the edges of where you carved. If you aren’t looking to keep your pumpkins out until Christmas like Kirkendall, or your perfect pick has started to rot, find a farm to donate your pumpkins to.
