If you have not been using this I would not use too much to start " don't want to blow it up". When you mix it use 1 tablespoon per gallon & spread about about 4-5 gallons in a radius of 5' on each side of the stump. I would wait at least 4 days after 1st application & keep measurments of the pumpkin before you apply any more.
That's all I got for now . Hope I've been of some help......Paul
