mid,
On the form u should see the crop you are growing (it may be on the back or front of the form) youll see pumpkins, check that off. On the form, just check off how much manure was put down, how much fertilizer, what kind of irrigation u plan to use, and how big your area is, etc.

I used a&l-labs-west.com 33 dollars, I told them I wanted a recomendation for giant pumpkins on it, I sent them 2 cups of soil in a bubble envelope, took about a week and a half, they have a phone number you can ask them questions before you do it.
