Hello!
I'm growing both Cinderella and Jarrahdale pumpkins, I started the seeds indoors a few weeks before the last frost (they were held over almost to four weeks because we had a surprise bout of snow). They've been planted for a week and I believe it's the Cinderella that's blooming. The weather has for the majority of their time outdoors been ridiculously hot, I'm not sure if that's added to this situation. They were prolific growers from day one but they're not so big that they should be blooming, for zone 6 it seems too early. Should I pluck the blooms and hope it encourages the plant to vine out and establish itself?
Thanks!
