El cuadro en tu diario parece una falta de la polinización. Cuando sucede eso las pequeñas calabazas abortan y mueren.

Looks like fusaria to me..I had this same problem with the same black spots on the fruit when they went down...Fresh tissue samples should be sent to the lab to confirm. good luck!

I've dealt with both Fusarium & Alternaria fruit rots. After starting to use sand under the pumpkin the rots most disappeared. Spraying the fruit with the regular fungicide sprays made it completely go away.
