It's magic dust for what ails pumpkins....mix it with water to form paste to plug small holes or vine splits...dust as a fungicide (which is what it is)...stops dampening off when there young etc.. amust have in the arsenal of what's gonna happen as long as you grow pumpkins! Most garden centers not home depots but the smaller ones have it there.
