Q.Pumpkin Plants Not Forming Pumpkins

Zone 61101 | 031947 added on August 4, 2011 | Answered

Pumpkins are growing very good, lots of flowers, bees, lots of water, but only one pumpkin and it is the beginning of August. Is it too late for pumpkins to make fruit? Is there something I can do to help? Thanks!

Even if you see bees, a little hand pollinating will not hurt, to ensure you get more pumpkins. This article will help with hand pollinating:
