Choose the sunniest and largest area in your garden. Plant 5 to 7 seeds outdoors in hills. Planting should occur in early spring to mid-summer, 3 weeks after the last frost, and when the soil has warmed to at least 70°F. Plants grow 2 feet tall, and vines spread up to 10 feet.
Requires fertile, slightly acidic soil in a well-drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant. Add well-composted manure.
Keep soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water well during dry and hot spells.
Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer every two weeks.
Protect ripening pumpkins from damp ground by placing them on boards. Cut pumpkins carefully from plants to prevent damaging the vines.
