How many field pumpkins do you normally leave on a plant, and where on the plant do you ideally want them to grow?

Is grafting a watermelon worth it, if your just shooting for 200 lbs? Or is it only necessary for a record?

Optimum pollination date for field pumpkins going to fall weigh off.
How many days do you expect field pumpkin to continue grow or put on weight?

On Morrows and field pumpkins, when do you pollinate, fertilize, plant, and water. What should my soil be like? I have literally tried for a decade on field pumpkin and never really gotten giant.

For LG's, what is your target for soil pH? Calcium? Are you using AG soil and feeding schedules?

Also, how did WiZZy end up calling himself WiZZy? lol
