I had no luck with my giants this year but I did plant some regular pumpkins and they have been doing very well I have about 15 nice looking pumpkins on the grow they still seem to be growing quite well but during the last week quite a few of my leaves are turning yellow and wilting and one of my plants has a white residue on alot of the leaves its under an apple tree, from my reading on this site i'm assuming mildew but my best pumpkin is on this plant and seems to be growing well the other thing it seems some of my pumpkins are starting to change from green to more of a yellow with some oarnge does this mean they are getting ready to pick and if so will they keep until oct.any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks to all mark
