I tried pumpkins this year, grasshoppers justabout did them all in until I dusted them. Only put out four hills, one hill although it recovered from the hoppers still is putting on blooms but no pumpkins. Only need 5 pumpkins for the Grandkids. I think I have 8 or 9. What is powdery mildew and what else do you need to look out for. 1st time grower gobble

I am new at growing them too,I should have sprayed,but I think by the time I saw it it was too late,maybe we will get some answers from people reading this post,sometimes if I screw up gardening and dont catch something in time it gets compounded because I usually only see the garden on weekends

Larry, My pumpkins look like yours. I sprayed twice with Neem Oil, but it did not help. Even the pumpkins that were supposed to be Powdery Mildew resistant died. The pumpkins were 110 day seed but were ready in 75 days.
