Most of my plant are now starting to develop yellow vines and i am also getting yellow spots on the leaves, any idea what that can be and what is a possible cause?
Also, some of my vines intend to grow vertically up in the air and then collapse on their own wheigt.. they still grow but they look broken...
Any ideas?
Not sure if or how i can post photo's here...

The yellow vines shouldnt be a problem I have one pumpkin its vine is almost all yellow. The spots on the leavrs look to be magnesium deficiency.

The yellow vines probably mean the pumpkin will turn nice and orange. The yellow leaves are a concern. I agree with Rick in that you probably have a magnesium deficiency. You probably have too much nitrogen in your soil as well causing the plant to grow up. It is best to support the head of the plant by placing something underneath it, so when it comes down, due to its own weight, it won't break.
It looks like you got away with it this time. You might want to try to gently straighten out the kink in the vine during the heat of day.
