Shading

Hello To All, First I would like to thank all the people on this group for information you have given us to try to grow a big pumpkin, I read every post and have learn't a lot, I'm out in Ontario/Canada trying to grow a no-name alantic giant pumpkin, I find all the information that comes on the list very helpfull, I have 3 pumpkins that are growing now, there not to big yet, they just started to grow, so at this date,(little bit bigger than a large grape fruit) does anyone think I can still get a big one in time for the fair? The fair is Labour day weekend, is there any hope for me? My second question is, when do I need to start shading, and how high off the ground would you suggest to go with it, and what do you use on top? If anyone would like to see my pumpkin patch, just email, I have taken a few pics, P.S. How much water should I be giving the pumpkins, do you's water every day or every other day? Thank-you Lynda
