You have plenty of boron to grow a big pumpkin. I would definitely get some N spread under the canopy and about 3 feet out around the plant.
Phosphorus and sulfur are way high. That could be an issue, but I'm not smart enough at this stuff to know for sure.

Thanks for the reply. The phosphorus is high from a history of beef manure, sulfur from gypsum this spring, it is coming down pretty quickly.
I'm planning on urea under the canopy when I get home tonight. I had been trying to spoon feed nitrogen but 16 inches of rain since they hit the patch has most of it gone.
BTW my 2196 Zappa is my best looking plant, it's not struggling with the nitrogen as much as the others and both pollinations are growing like crazy, time to make a decision on a keeper this weekend.
