Since I'm not familiar enough to guess at weights - I'll use 'sport balls' for the sizes....

I have a 517 Glover, 15' vine, with 1 volleyball & 1 softball pumpkin... tons of males, plenty of immature females...

Have several other plants with 2-3 golfball-to-softball sized pumpkins on each vine...

How large in circumference should the pumpkins be before I go through and cull the extras?

I like to see my chosen one getting to basketball size (or about 50" circ) before I cull the extra ones.

Basketball and 50" is a big difference. A basketball is 30" circ. Hope this helps out on-line comparisons. Peace Wayne

LOL, the guys who know me know that I don't have anything in common with any kinds of sports. So better go with my advice of 50" and forget the basketball...
