Question

Answer 1

yes you can have multiple pumpkins on the 1 vine.the more you have the smaller the size of them.try to resist picking them until the entire vine has died off.then you can be assured of maturity.also pumkins will happily accept all the manure you can heap around the plant base.good luck.

Answer 2

sure you can because thats the way pumpkins grow.

People who are into growing those massive pumpkins that weigh a hundred pounds or so actually just remove all the pumpkin flowers from a plant except one. and that one takes all the nutrients from the plant and gets huge.

but a normal plant will grow many.

Answer 3

I planted some pumpkin seeds this year which I bought in 1995. They came up and the vine is threatening to take over my garden and half my yard.  I imagine I  have 8 to 10 pumpkins on it.  I feed it fish emulsion twice a week and everybody's happy.  Well, not the wife if it gets in her roses.

Answer 4

Yes you can have more than one, i had a butternut pumpkin growing in my yard once and it had about 10 on it.  

Answer 5

yeah

Answer 6

You can never have too many pumpkins.Let them grow and back off on the fertilizer.I have ten acres of pumpkins and I sell them every year and all the money goes to local charities.You still have a good amount of time for the pumpkins to grow.

Answer 7

Yes, of course!
