I am going to do this with my double main vine Mombert 866... The vine that I had
been treating as my main, I am setting secondary vines with and letting them run
the patch... the second main, which I was treating (originally) as a secondary
vine before discovering that it is a second main, is going to be treated as a
secondary vine , but will get full attention as a main when it comes to setting
pumpkins.. This means that I will not be letting side vines grow from it, and use
it as one vnie with no secondaries.. Probably a mistake, but who knows..
