I have a healthy Gold Rush plant already has a couple fruit set on the main vine. On one of the secondaries there is a yellow female fruit that is flowering tomorrow morning. Will the pumpkin live? Never seen anything like it before.

Well it fertilized today so we will see what happens. All of the other fruit has been green as usual. Temps are suppose to dip into the mid 70s over the next couple days. I hope it leads to bunch of fruit set.

Im still waiting on my plants to set second fruits. I have a ton with just one pumpkin, they seem to be all around 10-20 lbs right now
