            | CarlaSue | Sonora, CA | I am new this year. My leaves were beginning to look dull and I spotted quite a few aphids and I found one cutworm. I put Down triazicide for cutworm and insecticide soap for aphids.  Will the plant improve and how often should I spray.  Sure appreciate this site.My largest pumpkins  is 122 ott  but I have 50 more days before I weigh in. It has been 24 days since pollination.  | 8/30/2017 2:48:07 PM |  
            | matt mcconkie | Mtn. Green, Utah | In my opinion, merit spray/drenches are the most effective on aphids.  Not good for bees though but some people remove or cover blossoms.   | 9/1/2017 1:26:54 AM |
