I live on the NSW South Coast in Australia and my butternut pumpkin gets pumpkins up to about 4 inches then they go yellow , die and fall off. Should I pull them out and try again next year.

Do some research on the internet butternut pumpkin turning yellow and falling off. Many reasons why it is happening.
