Good luck and watch out for the deer and/or groundhogs.
I got my watermelons in, but the pumpkins.... yeah, they should be in the ground by now :P
Watch you don't get too many bud-flowers on one plant - don't be afraid to snip em off to give the other buds a chance to get big.

Thanks! I've made a natural spray to keep various insects away (although hopefully not butterflies) and I've planted some foxgloves and salvias to (hopefully) keep the rabbits away. I don't think I'll have any problems with deer or groundhogs, thankfully, but I probably will have some trouble with birds. I haven't figured out what I'm going to do about them, yet...
Yeah, the Atlantic Giant pumpkins I got apparently have a solid 96% germination rate: they weren't kidding, every one of them sprouted! I got them off of Amazon. Just search "Pumpkin Dills Atlantic Giant 15 Seeds". I also have Sugar Pie and Rival PMR pumpkin seeds, but I'll probably have to wait a little while before I get to planting them, just so I'll hopefully have them for Halloween.
I'm going to experiment with the Atlantic Giants. I'll probably leave a few buds on one of the plants but leave only one bud for each of the other plants.
