Hi, I have a very long kent pumpkin vine but no flowers. It's planted at the same time and place as Golden Nugget (which is doing great) and Butternut (doing okay). Any thoughts on why the kent isn't flowering?

Pumpkins form with flowers still attached and then the pumpkin rots. I am now removing the healthy flower before the pumpkin starts to rot to see if that will allow the pumkin to grow properly. They are the kent variety of pumpkins. Has any one have any tips to share.
