Flower end on pumpkin
13 years ago
So once you have your pumpkin established, is it best to leave the dead flower and let it fall off on its own or pull it off after a certain time. Or does it even matter? I have a pumpkin that is about a 7-10 days since it was pollinated with the dead flower still attached and not sure if I should leave it alone or not. Thanks in advance!
