I would keep the vine without the snapped main vine myself, also the the
plant with the snapped main vine may not give you the best pumpkin since it
is such a good plant, sometimes, I have heard, that the plant under the most
stress gives the biggest pumpkins. I would advise taking out the one with
the cracked main vine :)
