Pumpkins, Squash & Gourds

Huge Pumpkin vines & 1 pumpkin

11 years ago

My vines are quite prolific with blooms galore but only one pumpkin has managed to grow. It is 12 inches in diameter and grows a half inch per day.

The others do the golf ball sized thing and turn yellow.

Are they not pollinating? If not how do I manually pollinate them or whatever?

Thanks

Jim

Thanks, I think the hand pollinating is working.
