It sure would be helpful if you could get a picture up in a diary. Words are not enough in tough call questions.

If it is a double, the best thing may be nothing. A local double was going flat. Then it split on it's own. The lesser of the two was nipped off & the next node produced a regular vine.

Knowing this, I'd wait a week or so before taking action.

Last year I had a double vine growing in different directions. It was on the 1074 Calai. The 1074 Was a slow growing plant and also slow growing pumpkins on it. I got two beautiful nice dark orange pumpkins off of the two vines. But George Lloyd also grew the 1074 and had nothing of great size on just one vine.

Joe,
Looks like one of those is a leaf stem, not the main.
