Theres really no way to control how round it grows- most of that is genetic. Pumpkins are heavy feeders. Dont overfeed Nitrogen once the vines get big, as it will make more leaves than fruit. Potash helps with fruits.

The best bet, I've found, is to water them regularly. Also, you might try pinching off all pumpkins except one ... that way the plant will put all it's energy into growing only one really huge fruit instead of numerous smaller ones.
