Futrinka street and the plausiblity of comfortably habitable giant-pumpkin houses

+0
−0

So, there was this pupet show about two characters, Mazsola and Tádé. They lived in a BIG pumpkin, that had been hollowed out and repurposed as a house.

enter image description here

It looked something like this. Now, I kinda like the idea of a big pumpkin house, especially if one was to carve the windows so the lights would resemble the face of a Donald Trump during night.

Anyway, it got me thinking,

  • would a giant (8 meters in height) pumpkin be possible without any real modification to its flesh and walls? Probably, also, see how I didn't say anything about the stem? That's my loophole.
  • Could you hollow it out an live inside of it for a long and comfortable (aside from having to collect twigs and carry fagots around) time?
