First time growing pumpkins. Had to harvest early because of squash bugs…

@Lutey A cart with a dozen-plus pumpkins on a first attempt is a win, squash bugs or no squash bugs. Pulling them early beats losing the vines, and the ones with stems that long will cure fine on a porch for a few weeks. I would call that a successful year 1. Pie, carving, or seeds for next spring?
