Hey guys I started my seeds little over 2 weeks ago. My big seed took less than 2 days to spout and way more adanced than my other plants, I'm about a week from sticking them in the ground weather permitted, and it's just starting 2 main vines, do I grow it with both, or clip off the slightly smaller one or get rid of the plant all together, not sure what to do and want to get this figured out before transplanting, thanks

Sounds early to be vining at 14days old. Post a photo

Start a diary. Just a side note can take awhile for the photo post to appear

Well if it's that big of a mess to put a picture on here I'm not gonna do it, I just simply want to know if this plant if good or bad, that's it simply question, I remember about 3 years ago someone posted the same question and they got an answer, I just don't remember what it was.

Give it more time, sounds too early to be a double but could be wrong without seeing a pic. I'd also start a backup today

Are you sure youre not confusing two true leaves with a vine?? Sounds very early to be vining but anything can happen as they say.

If you think fishrray's summary about posting a diary pic has too many things to do in it, you're gonna have a real tough time growing a giant pumpkin. If he told you how to check your email there would be more steps in it than that. The earlier posts are correct, with certainty, your plant is not old enough to vine. What you are seeing is the first two, or more leaves. When it is early it is hard to tell what's what. Your plant will not vine out for a couple weeks yet. Which is good, because unless you live where it is very hot it is too early to have a plant that old.

Step 1. Put a can of dinty moore stew in front of the plant
Step 2. Watch to see which one of the vines reaches for the dinty moore the fastest
Step 3. Keep the vine that reached the fasted towards the stew and cut the other one off.
Side note: Very important in step 2 that you paying close attention because both vines will dart for the stew pretty fast and you don't want to miss which one reaches out first.

Too many steps. Put the seed directly into the opened can of dinty Moore beef stew. If it germinates, it is definitely a hardcore winner. Plant that seed. Sorry saxtin I'm on vacation with lots of time on my hands. Just having a little fun. Your plant will be fine.
