This is marrow #1 on a sidevine of the bigger plant. Its 5 days old and is 9" long. Also have 3 others on sidevines. Not sure which ones I am keeping yet. Going to wait a little more while and see who's growing nicer.
Couple others were pollinated a few days ago and are also doing well so far. One is on a sidevine a little further down and is only 1" shorter than the one in this pic.
For personal record. Marrow#2: 4.75"
Marrow#3: 8"
Marrow#4: 3.5"(only been pollinated for two days)

Also...yes I know this one pictured is in the grass right outside the garden. The plant got so big the sidevines are going into the yard. They will have boards or styrofoam to lay on out of the grass. I'm crossing my fingers I'll get atleast one nice one now that fruits are setting.
