Pumpkin grows fast, despite mildew

September 16
September 26
My one and only pumpkin continues to grow, despite being attached to a vine that is slowly dying from powdery mildew.  A quick Google search tells me that I could have halted, or at least slowed, the spread of the mold by spraying the leaves with an alkaline solution.  Too bad it took me so long to research.  As you can see below, the mildew has reached the leaves nearest to the pumpkin.  I wonder if it's too late to save them!
