i just got back my soil test results from, A&L great lakes lab. And it says my ph. for the soil is 7.3. Now i know that its not to high! but, would a giant pumpkin still be able to grow in soil conditions like that.

if not (WHY).
thank you!

Yes you can grow well with 7.3, my pH is 7.8 and a grew a 906 lb-er this year. The largest in the area.

you can bring your pH down by adding elemental sulfer.
But I'm not sure what the application rate would be in your case.
