Hi I planted pumpkins in mid November, they are still growing and i'm getting heaps of them. Do I just let them keep growing until they decide to dry off from the stalk? I live in Launceston,Tasmania

My Pumpkins are the same. Still growing like crazy and flowering. I thought they are supposed to be finished? This is my first time growing them down here (Victoria). I guess we'll just have to leave them until the plants die off.
