I have a kin on the 4th side about 10 ft out. ( its a little bigger than a basketball ) I finally got a nice kin (baseball size) on the main at 24 ft. My question is do you think the kin on the main will grow faster than the kin on the side? My plant is healthy around35 ft widex27ft long. I havent terminated any vines till i find out. Help please thanks.

Main vine fruit will ultimately get bigger.The side vine fruit will likely be quicker out of the starting blocks-but the fruit on the main will pass it up.

I would start by terminating some vines, not all of them, all at once. And definitely not the main or the secondary with the kin. A couple a day.

Then, I agree with cojoe.

I vote main as well. That secondary could go big but you would’ve needed to grow terts off of it like it was a new main. I’d wait and make sure the baseball size one gets past DAP 10 on main before you cut.
