I have read where you terminate vines right after the pumpkin on side vines but what about the one plant that I have that I'm growing on the main? Do I continue to grow the main out or cut it to. It is about 15 feet out. Also, do I terminate all secondary vines once the pumpkin is set? I have half of the secondarys terminated already due to space but I have left the others growing. Thanks for the help.
