All of my pumpkins have developed powdery mildew on the leaves - they are watered into the ground rather than over the leaves so I am disappointed to see this develop. The leaves now look rather small in comparison to all the other squash which seem unaffected - but the pumpkins themselves are still growing and developing nicely, with some now turning orange.
What shall I do? leave it and see? remove all leaves? any other options other than ripping the lot out? (which would seem harsh given how well they are developing).
Im sure I saw someone say you can spray the leaves with diluted milk to help.
We use Sulphor powder, it seems to work quite well
mine did that last year,but still grew ok,it just looked horrid
