What size should a pumpkin be when the female flower opens?


I have had many pumkins dry up and die before the flowers opened. I just had 
my first female open on August 4. It was about the size of a large marble.(an 
aggie) It died yesterday, August 7. It turned to mush. This is my first time 
growing pumpkins and I don't know why this happened. I hand pollinated the 
flower. After I pollinate the pumkin, how long does it take before the 
pumpkin really takes off? I know I have listed many questions here, but I 
really need help. Thanks to anyone and everyone that can answer these 
questions.
