I noticed that one of my PUMPKIN plants was almost dead but it keeps coming back. Now I found at least 6 of these little guys growing. Are they pumpkins gone wrong from the mildew or could they be gords? Attachments: Quote \| Reply \| Report

Then again the company I bought from also mixed up alot of things this year. I bought the same thing as far as zucchini this year and 2 of the 6 pack were a different kind of zucchini.

Tags get lost, switched by other customers, etc... I had bought jalepenos, and 3 of them produced bell peppers LOL! Quote \| Reply \| Report
