Pumpkins and frost.

Can my pumpkins survive a frost or should i bring them in before we get one ?

They won't survive a frost - but also they need as much ripening time as possible. So my advice is to keep them on the vine as long as possible but to harvest them as soon as frost is forecast. My nerve is about to give out so I am probably going to harvest mine soon and "cure" them in the conservatory before storing. It's taken so long to grow them I would be devastated if I lost them now  :)

I didn't think they like frost, i am too getting nervous  :) I think i will give them to the weekend then bring them in.
