Hi gang. We moved this past summer and I'm looking to start a patch at our new place. Never grown giant pumpkins and was hoping to get some input on what I need to do to my soil. Here's the soil test. I'm in Northeast Indiana. Hopefully this picture does up. Thanks!

Taking a stab at it. Like the report says your Phosphorous and potassium are low and so is the OM. No info on the micronutrients but boron and manganese are usually low on unamended soil but that is a guess. I would hit it with a lot of manure with additional sources of phosphorous and potassium as a starting point.

Really looks to be a pretty good starting situation. Rons giving good advice. I like a little early season nitrogen and mid/late season potassium. For micronutrients I like western labs parma Idaho (soil test)to know where your at.they also will give you exact recommendations and they know pumpkins.-good luck
