  Could you give me some advice
on how to help my poor pumpkins before they die?  They seem to have
blossom-end rot.  The watering schedule is off due to several days of
rain.
 I don't know what type of fertilizer I should use.  There doesn't seem
to
be many female flowers.  Some flowers are rotting and have  fuzzy mold
on
them.  I have lost several fruit that looked to be doing well.  One just
shriveled up and another turned orange too soon then started rotting. 
Should I trim less healthy looking pumpkins?  How?  I'm not trying to
grow
a monster.  I just want healthy, medium-sized pumpkins.  What do I do?
