Bilil,

This is bad news,do you have other pumpkins on this plant.  Hope so!!  You
might try scraping out the rot and put capatan or some other fungucide in
the hole but if the rot goes clear through not much you can do.  I lost
many to blossom end rot so the odds are against you.  All you can do is try
to fix it.  Might work might not...  Are you shading your pumpkins. Wishing
Lots of good luck to ya....Brock
