Cutting main vine


It has been a great season here in the NW.  However, my plant only gave me one fruit this year, and as fate has it, i have had to cut the main vine about 3 inches past the only fruit.  (It would have pulled away from the vine)
So my question is... how much do you think I have hurt the potential growth of this fruit??  I mean, doesn't most of the uptake of nutrients come from before the fruit?     Has anyone had this experience before??
