Gramma pumpkin. When is the best time to pick? When fully orange and dusty. Is it ripe when green and dusty looking?

About 20 weeks or so after planting. The vine will be dying back, the stem from the pumpkin to the vine will be hard and dry. When you think it is ready try one, if a pale colour then you picked too early.
