Not really sure why this is happening. Frist one was on main vine about 12 feet out 300 pounds and stopped growing. Two weeks later it got soft and rotted. Plant has continued to grow since and looks pretty healthy. Today I had a third pumpkin do the same. Stopped growing about two weeks ago. only difference this one is on a side vine. Plant doesn't look as healthy as the other one that lost a pumpkin but continues to grow. Temperatures have been upper 70's lower 80's. Not a extremely hot summer here like normal. Any one out there have this happen and what is the cause? Very frustrating Thanks in advance for any one who replies.

I lost everything. Sent a tissue and soil test out to see what was going on in my soil that looked so amazing,,,,,,,,
I had 4 nasty diseases I knew nothing about.

Send some soil out,,,,,, its really the only way to get to the bottom of whats really going on.

It hurts, doesn't it :(
