Last photo for now, This one side of the pumpkin had a massive bulge and was difficult to manage vine stress as I have been splitting the side vines before and after the pumpkin for the last few weeks. Moving it was not an option so I kept digging out the main vine so it could sink a bit deeper in the soil. I think in the future when setting a pumpkin up for growth I will be removing the vine before the pumpkin ( this is what we currently do ) plus one more vine on that same side. We pulled the side vines back as far as we could when burying them to set the pumpkin up but it was still not enough. I may also opt to remove one more vine on the main vine side that runs past the pumpkin. Plant was just over 1,000 sq ft with 9 vines on one side and 10 on the other.
