Be patience and talk to them as if you're talking to your kid (if you have any kid) and sometimes you should spank at them, threat them that you'll gonna rooted tgem if it doesn't bear any fruitπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ no.. that's not like that. Give them ladder to climb and spread their tendrils anywhere they want but you can direct them to anywhere you want. Enough water and minimum fertilizer and be patience. It tooks 6 months before they bear tge first fruit. Don't let them get too much water.

Ahh thank you. I'll cut back on the watering, and see if that helps.

How old is your pumpkin now?

None of the pumpkins I started indoors ever lasted when I transplanted in the Spring. Many of the seeds I planted when the season got warmer seemed to take, but that wasn't until June that the insects and weather would leave them alone so they could survive past infancy.

Amongst last year's carrot crop. Testing out to see if the carrots help improve the soil and help shield out leaf-eating bugs.

Under the corn. This area seems to be more ideal. Full sun morning to afternoon, then shade from the house when it is the most hot in early evening. A slight slope also allows water to irrigate through instead of settling into puddles.

You can try something like this..

Grow them in a pot and then move the pot to the ground, make holes at the bottom of the pot or maybe polybag and watering the once a day except when it rain. The best time to grow pumpkin in 4 seasons country is at the end of winter or beginning of spring. That's what I read from articles. Because I live in Indonesia I can grow them anytime here.

Hahahaha.. sorry that I turn your post into a pumpkin exhibition πŸ˜„
