Hey!😝. I am a newbie. I have an Atlantic giant pumpkin that was pollinated about ten days ago. I noticed the blossom/flower has not fallen off. Do I remove any of it? Does it pose any harm? It just sticks out a lot. Thanks for any help.

The actual flower pedals you should remove keep everything else

Check it over very closely. If you see any discoloration you will need to cut it off.

Check the stem and blossom especially in periods of rain or high humidity. Just a quick check for cracks and soft spots.
