The fourteenth I pollinated with pollen which was 2 days in the fridge. Looks like it took. Already a half time bigger.

Just now I pollinated straight from only 2 males also both from the same plant. Hope for the best!

Then I can make a choice between the 2.

How long after pollination do you decide wich one to keep?

wait at least until they are the size of a large cantelope
( at minimum) ----a little later is always better because pumpkins can still abort on occasion even at the above size.
