Most of the giant pumpkins are a squash. Biggest pumpkin I was ever able to grow was ~250#. I picked all the blooms off except one. Behind the pumpkin I cut the vine off & put it in a dish of milk. Changed milk every couple days.
Son was 5 or 6 at the time, he's 45 now. We carved it for s jack o lantern, have a pic of him inside it.
