MC-242578Pumpkins can generate on sand
Map seed 13. From 117/66/277 looking north, I see two pumpkins that spawned on top of sand. They're only supposed to spawn on grass.

I don't see this necessarily as a feature request or suggestion. The frequency might have been accidentally increased, as many other features had their frequency accidentally changed due to changes in the 1.18 development cycle, e.g. MC-243020, MC-244203. Specifically for pumpkin patches, these changes also caused MC-242578.
Marking as Plausible for now because it seems that, anecdotally, I have encountered more pumpkin patches than in 1.17.1, but this might be biased and a proper analysis may be needed.
I was unable to replicate this in the seed and coordinates you had provided.
Are you able to provide more information of this issue?
I was able to find the two pumpkin on sand, in the seed 13
Why is this resolved? Christininjacraft was able to reproduce it. Reopen it.
I just went into the same seed at the released 1.18 three times, and could not reproduce this. So, either it's been fixed (yeah, right), or it's random. Random would explain why not everybody could reproduce it.
I'm not sure whether you should close this ticket or not. If development thinks they corrected it, then close it. But, if they don't, they might still have work to do to explain it.
Confirmed in 1.18.1.
