“David, I was wondering if you have some advice on how to prune c. Moschata to produce the larger size fruits. I have managed to find a source of Seminole seed on Ebay and was hoping to grow them but all my pumpkins grown in the past have been quite small, but I did not prune or do much in the way of giving them special attention. Thanks in advance mate. :)”

Oh man. Now you’re making me think!

I don’t have any advice on pruning pumpkins. I generally let them go insane.

HOWEVER – I may have been wrong in my approach.

I dunno, though. I’ve done a lot of searching for the past hour for more on pruning and don’t find much.

Burying the nodes, though – I’m totally going to do that this week.
