Alright for a little background I grew a couple "giant" pumpkins in my parents backyard as a kid in the early 2000's in Phoenix AZ. My largest was #230 lbs. Fast forward 15 years and I'm moving out of a house into an apartment this summer and have a spot that has been a compost pile for the last several years and decided it would be fun to give it another go before I'm stuck in an apartment with no backyard. I ordered a pack of 500-700 lb seeds from Hollands Giants and added about 30 percent native soil to the compost pile and planted in mid February. Late for this part of the country but I didn't want to deal with frost protection. We will see how it goes!
