Do you leave the pumpkins on the vine until they are turning orange or are already orange? I ask b/c my vines are turning like a mildewing grey color and I want to pull them out. I would assume that the pumpkins will eventually ripen off the vine but wanted to know if there were ways to hasten the process.

I have always left them on til they were orange. Pumpkins lose water after they get picked, so if you plan on using them right away, go for it!
