I planted what I was told was Jack O Lantern pumpkins but they are only baseball sized, have stopped growing and are light yellow in color. I had one plant that started growing and I had so many pumpkins I had to pinch several off so the others would grow to a good size. They still seem to be healthy and are NOT falling off the vine. I have a ton of bees and plenty of both male and female blooms. I water often but have not fertilized and they get plenty of sun. The inside is the same light color as the outside. I have had some powdery mildew but have treated with soap and milk. Am I maybe growing something other than pumkins?

Alexsdad, Are they usually yellow? And yes it's possible they are little Jacks bc the seeds that I planted were send in an envelope not the original packaging.
