To grow those colossal sized pumpkins, the vines need to be pruned down to one fruit per vine. I know this is a tough thing to do, but it gives the plant energy to produce one huge pumpkin instead of several smaller ones. Also pumpkins are heavy feeders and love rich, fertile soil. The more compost they have the better.
