Harvest Tips:

Protect ripening pumpkins from damp ground by placing them on boards. Cut pumpkins carefully from plants to prevent damaging the vines.

The Atlantic Giant pumpkin variety is the best variety for growing a giant pumpkin. I have grown them a few times over the past five years and I have had great results overall. In 2002 I grew a 220 pound pumpkin. This variety requires fertile, loose,  and  well  drained  soil  in  a sunny location. The plants are very fast growing and you can easily grow a 100-300 pound pumpkin! With a little extra work you can grow a 500+ pound pumpkin! For best results fertilize once a week and shade pumpkins when they reach about baseball size. I highly recomend this variety for anyone who wants to grow a GIANT pumpkin in their garden.
