  1. Plant the pumpkin seeds is a spot that gets as much sun as possible.  It will also need plenty of water and monitored for pests.  The further North you are, the more sunshine the plants will get in the Summer.  Also be sure to get seeds that advertise large fruits.

  2. Start by selecting a variety that grows giant pumpkins.  A species that normally produces 7 to 10 pound fruits will never grow a 200 pound pumpkin.

    Once you've selected you species, plant in spring after the danger of frost is past.  A sunny sunny spot, with fertile, well-drained soil.  Consistent watering is key.  Lots of champion pumpkin growers have their own "secrets" for super-large pumpkins, including feeding them special fertilizers, or feeding with milk (really!).   There was even a PBS special on the people who get obsessed with growing huge pumpkins.  You should check it out!
