I had a great little garden of zuchini and pumpkin plants, but they grew past the garden fence and out onto the lawn. My husband just cut them right back to the fence. He says that there werent' any pumpkins or zuchini on the vines cut, so no big deal.I'm afraid that cutting them back like that will affect the pumpkins that were growing inside the garden fence. One patch has started to turn yellow. Are the plants dying because they were so heavily pruned?A friend has said that you are supposed to prune back pumpkins to make the ones growing get bigger... is that true? What should I do now to help the remaining plants?Here is a picture of the garden - post pruning....http://www.flickr.com/photos/10335153@N05/2790297056/You can see the yellow patch at the lower right side.
