Lots of things can harm a pumpkin plant. Poor weather such as a bad storm, to much rain or a early hard frost can harm the plant. Also pollutants in the soil or too many weeds will also negativity effect the plant. On top of all this there are some harmful insects that like to eat the leaves of squash plants, the plant is also susceptible to mold and other diseases. Animals can also destroy gardens and happen to like squash plants. Even geese who are used for weeding will eat your pumpkins.
