When there is no reply, it does not mean that nobody is willing to help. It most likely means that nobody has any suggestion (or a solution) at this moment. All of us are learners like you :-)zainab wrote:nobody willing to help?

Re: pumpkins in problem
seems like nutrient deficiency and/or soil is too compact for growth of roots....

If you can post any picture, it will be more helpful to identify the problem...

Re: pumpkins in problem
It was same with my pumpkin plant but you will note that your plant is taking new growth from other end which means your plant will keep on surviving. But if it is not so than you should really worry about them. If there is one fruit per plant than you are likely to get a larger pumpkin .
