Help!
I have a pumpkin (88.5"c, 214"OTT) that has been doing great until
today. While patrolling my vines for squash vine borer grubs, I noticed
one had actually bored a hole in my pumpkin. I was unable to extract the
grub without doing major damage to the pumpkin as he bored straight in.
I am searching for source of captan, but in the mean time I have applied
a paste of a copper based fungicide. Am I doing the right thing? Will I
lose this pumpkin? Will the wound heal on its own? The entry hole is
about 1/4" in diameter. I would greatly appreciate any advice. Thanks.

If the hole goes all the way through to the seed cavity?? It's all over.
Some may dispute this, but from what I've seen, the end is near.
