pumpkin row width, using a cultivator for weed control

Ok guys,

seems like and easy concept, but I cant figure this one out, once I hear how easy it is going to be I am going to kick myself, but here goes,,

I am planting my pumpkin patch, last year the weeds took over fast, was trying to hand weed it no way,,,,

so this year I am planning on using my cultivator to help out, it is approx 7 ' with tines in a row about 10 .[ferguson unit]. they can be removed or set to different widths,, I am using my TN 55 about 6' width tires,,,

I would like to plant about 3' apart but would do 6 feet if I had to ,, I know the 6' woudl be easy just leave a width wide enough to plant,,

I guess my question is where to set the tines so when I am done I can straddle teh plants and get the weeds under,, see I told you it was simple question,, thanks pat
 

Row width depends upon the type (size) of pumpkin you are planting.. smaller pumpkins can be planted closer together than larger ones...
