what is the best way to water a fully grown pumpkin plant.

watering pot? will take awhile to walk around and water all the roots on every vine.

soaker hoses? hard to have hoses running along with every vine.

overhead sprinkler? i read this is bad and can spread disease from leaves to eachother.

any others?

Hand watering under the canopy with a water wand. It's time consuming but if it can get me to 1k it will be worth it.

early season we go over top

from pollination on we hand water underneath when possible.
never late at night though, causes disease and mildew
