This is my first year growing pumpkins and have no idea of the month they change colour!
I have two plants both with about six pumpkins on each! I am not worried about the growing the biggest just want them to do their own thing.

mine must be pretty behind then!

I have one plant with one pumpkin - good size but still pale.

Second plant has 4 pumkins - one large pale and 3 small ones growing.

Hopefully they will catch up. they are needed for halloween or my kids will not be happy!
