Hi there, My pumpkins are finally growing. There is a picture of one attached. It's lying on its side. Do I need to try and prop it upright eventually, so that it will start to become round, rather than being oblong? Thanks, Marianne

I think that may be its natural shape and is good as you have it imo.
Might be tricky to put it upright without damaging the stem with its size at this stage. Well grown and healthy.
