My pumpkin plants are huge but so far no female flowers.

They’ll come! Squashes tend to do that - put out the male flowers first, them females later, then more males.

Give them a ‘Bloom Booster’ if you want, along the lines of a 10-52-10 formulation, but little if any nitrogen.

Phosphorus helps with blooming and fruiting.
