Hi, I have a 3x3 meter growing space for my pumpkin, but it has grown like 2 meters outside it on every side (it cant set roots outside of it). Should i limit its growth there?
And one more question. My pumpkin is on day 20 today. I have some 0-7-15 fertilizer for it now. But how much do i use of it and how often? Thanks!

I think I did a book report on Stockholm, Sweden in middle school - I don't remember anything about it but oh, so far away, lol---
If you go to the Search Window on the Home Page and hit up

small area

go the the BOTTOM and look at each heading that specifically says what you want or else you'll be looking at a million posts from many years of discussion.

examples:

'larger pumpkins from smaller flag patterns'

If it were my situation, I'd literally chop off one vine per week at its limit for 'hope this works!' safety and allow the NEXT *tertiary* that would grow from that to grow and turn each one BACK into the growing area to simulate an effectively larger plant, burying every available node-to-be and the ones present with soil in the meantime. Similar to a heating cable being placed in a pit to be under a plant, or a handheld metal detector at the airport. Chopping each sec will enable an easier time of it for redirecting the terts back toward the plant. Good Luck---eg

Read the directions on the package. Don't be a 'more-on' and put more on. Keep a good balance.
