I'm not sure I'm a big boy...but I do prep in the fall that consists of:
1. Bringing in a truckload of cow manure per hole? (8ft diameter, 2-3 feet deep)
2. Bringing in a truckload of compost per hole
I do not put soil in these holes, so the pumpkins start "afresh" each year with lots of good stuff.
Take care and good luck

What do you people who grow the "big boys" consistently do to prepare your
gardens for next year?
