Unfortunately yes. The last major hot streak we had that killed about 80% of my crop took the pumpkin out also. That thing was growing at an amazing rate. You could actually see the size increase day to day.
I even covered the entire plant with shade cloth and it was not enough.
In a very narrow band we had horrible growing conditions. 20-30 miles away in any direction got enough rain that their crops done OK but the rain just kept missing us. Even the outside gardens sucked this year and you can't hardly kill one of those usually.
