Hey so did anyone else plant A LOT of pumpkins?

I planted way too many. My rarest color is yellow. Lots of orange and green. I sell them... they make good money... or gifts.

I had already carved out a large area of my cliffs for Cole's house + path and garden, so I worked out I could fill that area with 150 pumpkins and see what I get, (not enough yellows!) then replant later as I moved him in...
Well it all took way longer than expected, and I now have some 600 pumpkins in storage and had to sell loads of spare orange pumpkins and sell about 70 of the plants when I realised I had nowhere for them, and that they regrow! Then I learned you can plant a pumpkin and grow a plant of a guaranteed colour, and planted a load more yellows, and now I'm sitting on about 90 pumpkins spread everywhere around Coles house and throughout town, and I doubt even after crafting everything I'll have made a dent in my storage now. :s

naw I went minimalist, have a garden of 12, then 2 more elsewhere (they were orange so dug them up and planted the right colors in their place but didnt want to scrap them) My second island has 12 too, pretty much like to just do 2 uses of the watering then done.

I planted around 24 so far, but I'm about to make more "pumpkin areas" on my island soon. I just love the addition of pumpkins in this game along with the spooky stuff.

I planted a lot at first, now I just have 7 of each colour and a few spare orange ones. That should be more than enough, so I have dug up and destroyed the rest. :D

not many, a dozen maybe.... because I am buying furniture at nook cranny instead of crafting ^^ but I did not know that we could give away pumpkin as a gift to villager so I will do that from now on

I planted way too many thinking they only grew once then you had to plant more.

I planted quite a lot and now I've started slowing down with the Halloween crafting for the moment the number of pumpkins is catching up to me aha. I think I have about 100 lying on paths and some in my pumpkin patchs I haven't harvested yet.

Not unless you want to craft a lot of pumpkin decorations. ♡

I keep planting more and more pumpkins! I decided to move Sherb back by my house since he has the nature hobby and needs a garden. I had dead space so rearranged my paths and boom, need to expand my pumpkin patch. Oh, now I have room for something in front of my house? Micro pumpkin patch time!

Oh, I miscounted and have an extra pumpkin sprout? Let's plant it in my campsite.

I was really resistant to farming in AC and now I love it!

I have three patches. I now have too many pumpkins, so I just don't harvest them anymore.

Have 3 patches of pumpkins and not sure what to do with them 😂 Bought everything from shops, and like orange better than customised

I've planted over 20 but still don't have any white pumpkins! Meanwhile my house is filled with orange pumpkins 😅

I'm actually going to to plant a ton, like 40, to try and get about 5 white pumpkin plants.

I planted some, got more, planted more, and some more. Rn I have too many orange cause I started planting them to get more of the other colours so I can arrange them all pretty like. I quickly learned I did not need to plant as many as I did at first since I've been buying the actual furniture from Nooks.

I planted too many only because I used them as decoration In my forest and along some paths-- I also have a dedicated pumpkin patch that is LORGE

I'm amazed at all of you that say that you haven't needed many crafted pumpkins since you're buying them. It makes me wonder if I'm going overboard on decorating since I've been buying every decoration I see and I still need/want more!
