Hey everyone!

I have a couple of pumpkins on my vines that haven't ripened yet. There is some orange but I feel like time is really dragging on. There's one particular pumpkin that seems to have this little spot going on close to the vine. Should I just go ahead and pick the pumpkins or do I need to leave them until orange. Does the ripening stage normally take this long?

I'm really trying to make these work. These have been the only pumpkins to make it this far.

Thanks again everyone!!

Personally, I would leave them on the vines IF the vines are alive, Salvage them just before a killing frost. Of course if the vines are dead pick them.
