Recomended for growing giant anythings:
Mega Gro
This is a natural growth stimulant quite concentrated. The trick is, first, it is diluted and SPRAYED onto the plant. At young stages of the Pumpkin plant you want the plant to grow huge, so spray it onto the whole plant.
As the plant begins to make female flowers, spray it only on the leaves. At that point you want the plant to make huge leaves.
After you are certain a female flower has set, and that can take 20 days with a true Giant variety, begin spraying the fruit all over it, but also spray the entire plant again. Spray that Pumpkin until you pick it. Its handle too.
At that stage you want every leaf node to set roots. Spray extra near them.
As the plant matures begin spraying the growing tip to encourage its continued growth. Stop spraying the growing tip when it is showing signs of being done.
Bio Weed
This is another liquid product made of cold pressed Seaweed. It can be diluted and mixed with your Mega Gro. It has a more complete blend of natural supplements and growth hormones.
Root hormones
A lot of different brands are all good. There are 2 major kinds of different formulations. Dash a small amount on the nodes to root them.
Liquid fertilizers such as Bio Thrive, or Dutch Master brand.
These are excellent products mainly made for hydroponics, but are great for soil growing too. They come in a GROW formula generally higher in Nitrogen, and they come in a BLOOM formula generally highest in Phosphorus. Brands that are real good contain mostly natural ingredients. There are some organic brands also. The GROW formulations are used until the male flowers start. The BLOOM formulations are used during the blooming phase of the plant's growth. Hopefully your bloom formula has at least some nitrogen.
These are some supplements. Hopefully the soil was well prepared for Gigantic growth.
Never ever overdose a plant with enthusiasm!!!
Much better to OVERDILUTE and use MORE OFTEN than to overdose with a strong mix even one time.
Think of it like this: A person could use fertilizer to kill weeds if they use it right.
