I understand that 10-12 ft is the ideal length for the pumpkin to set out on the main---I lost mine at 12 ft
and now appears I may get another out at 15-16 ft
Will 15 ft work, otherwise I may need to go with a secondary.

Kurtis, 15ft will work I can assure you and there is no need to go to a secondary just yet.

Many say up to 16 feet is prime zone.

Go here, plenty of the top kins 1600+ were at 16 or 17 feet.

Thats a great site Luke, Thanks.

Been checking out the info and must get myself a Stelts seed next year as I love the colour of his pumpkins
