    The picture shows that the pumpkin just sprouts, and the seeds inside will germinate after the pumpkin has been stored in a specific environment for a long time, not because the pumpkin is broken, but because the surrounding environment meets the conditions for germination. Pumpkin germination only consumes the nutrients inside the seeds, and does not lead to a decrease in the nutritional value of the pumpkin, but if the germination time is too long and the seeds take root, the pumpkin will deteriorate at this time and is not suitable for eating again.

    Therefore, for the pumpkin that has just sprouted, it is edible, and the nutritional value will not be reduced, but once the pumpkin is spoiled, do not eat it again.
