Pruning is not always necessary for a field
Field pumpkin, but it can help this plant during its fruit development stage. Pruning during fruit development helps your field
Field pumpkin grow fewer but larger fruits on each of its fruit-bearing vines. Along with the main goal of aiding fruit production, pruning also helps you control the spread of your field
Field pumpkin, which can become quite long and may outcompete other plants in your garden. Still, your
Field pumpkin will probably survive and produce relatively well, even if you prune it minimally or not at all. But if you want the best results possible, some well-timed pruning is what you should use.
