shriveling babies


Hello all!  I'm going to swallow my pride and ask a question.  I know you're
all concerned with AG's but my concern is much smaller.  This summer I had
some "volunteer" pumpking from some compost which wasn't quite done.  I
thought it would be fun to let them grow, but they quickly turned yellow and
died.  After being bitten by the bug, I planted a few jack-o-lantern types
right in my old compost bin.  (You're all shuddering I can tell)  Well,
anyway, they've been growing great but I'm having the same problem I've had
for years; the female flowers form, get fertilized and soon after turn yellow
& fall off.  Any help would be appreciated.  I'm in Virginia now but had the
same problem in Illinois.  Thanks in advance.
