i'm in south east michigan and want to display my giant pumpkin at our
halloween wedding. i have only had limited success 150-200 was my max. so far. any
help on some good seeds or growing instructions would be appreciated, i have
the growing giant pumpkin books but it didn't seem to help. i guess i need to
get good seeds, know what and how much and how often to add stuff like
fertilizer. how much and how often to water etc. i dug huge pits like in the
book, because i have clay. i filled my four pits with 20 yards of compost, made
from leaves and trees. this year is important to me, i need to grow a giant
of 500# or bigger, i'd love a record pumpkin but i doubt that will ever happen.
anyhow please help a fellow pumpkin farmer out.
