Follow watering and feeding directions for your particular plant and make sure it is getting the required amount of sunlight, though your pumpkin will last longer if it isn't in the hot sun.
Group your pumpkin planter with other fall container gardens, gourds and pumpkins or just place it on a doorstep. If you use your pumpkin planter for a table decoration, make sure to put something under it to protect the surface.
Enjoy!
