Well the marrows are still growing pretty good.
I culled the #2 and #4 marrow, they were not growing as fast as the others, so I am left with #1 and #3.
#1 marrow is now at 11" with a 14.5" circumference
#3 marrow is now at 10" and a 13" circumference

I was going to cull all but one but I though me having 40' of vine that should be enough to feed 2-3 good sized marrows.
Found another female yesterday morning on a sidevine all the way out at the 40' mark of the main and 5ft out the sidevine its growing on. It pretty much came out of nowhere so this one was open pollinated. Seems to be a strong little female, I hope the bee's did their job well and it sets!
