If you look closely you can see I dead ended the main one node past the end of the last possible pollination, and left an additional secondary to grow from that node.

Im starting to like this plant (it had a leaf I was sure had gotten scorched , it changed to that pale dead color, beyond just wilting, but then unbelievably it came back to life...). And I think dead ending was the correct thing to do as looking in the tip I removed there were no more pumpkins coming farther out. Very happy about getting a June pollination, it will be very well timed to when the weather is forcast to dry out. Males are on the way too, I just hope they are fertile.
