You answered your own question. Of course! Sounds like you have some
promising pumpkins there. You didn't say how long they've been on the vine or
which fruit was pollinated first.
Remember, the best way to keep track of growth patterns is to chart your
fruit's growth 10 days after pollination and again at 20 days. Then, compare
notes. As not all fruit are pollinated on the same date, their growth can be
best measured and compared equally at 10 and 20 days out.
Good luck this season. Sounds like you have things together for a first year
grower.
