Hi David! Well I hope the spot wasn't TOO small! Pumpkins need A LOT of space,
at least 20 feet by 20 feet, and for the giant ones that most on this list
grow, about 35 feet by 35 feet! Proper care, well basically keep the bad
insects off, keep it watered, and have a lot of compost and composted manure
in the soil, and all the basic stuff. I could go on for hours but, well that's
the main stuff to do.
