I have female blossoms coming out but very few males. The males I do have
do not have much pollen either,nor do they look healthy. Any answers? I
have sprayed for bugs alot maybe hurt the plant? I have never seen so many
cucumber beetles & stink bugs as this year in NH. And now I am seeing vine
bores.

I had the same problem with my AG- AG-560-98-GB this is the seed from the
"Living Dead" (1006 x 1006). Then when they started they would bloom the
opposite day from the females. This went on for a couple of weeks then males
started to appear in large numbers. Don't have an explanation for this. I
now have Pumpkins set and growing.
