Training a plant ?


Hello all ... My 1st post to pumpkins@ ...

Can one of you pump gurus please tell me what governs the direction a plant
will grow towards ?  Dependent on the sun ?
Reason I ask is that I only have limited space for one plant witch will
either be from Bernard Lavery or Thompson-&-someone-or-others (haven't
spotted any Atlantic Giants in the UK yet), depending on which looks the
best when (if ?!) the seeds come up.  The plot I have is rectangular.  I'd
like to know if I can train the plant to grow along the longest length of
this rectangle without stomping over too much of my lawn to the side.

I know, get a proper patch ... I'm looking.

Many thanks in advance for any advice.
