               I planted a few knucklehead pumpkins this year and haven't had any luck with them?  Never planted them before.  Anyone know anything about them?

               How big are the plants and what issues are you having? They are pretty hard and should be very easy to grow

               The plants aren't getting big at all.  The vines are small and no females.

               How old are the plants...as in what day did you plant them..filed pumpkins only require about 45 days after to fully mature

               I planted them 6-5.  I didn't know if it was heat related or if it was typical for them to be finicky.

               60 days from planting for fruit to appear...give them time
