Main Vine Space Looks Good, but Could be Better on the 2154 Sperry '23

In the image the spacing and position look good, but there is some evidence that there could be some potential future issues and the pumpkin is easier to move now so this week it will be pulled back about 4 to 6 inches. The vines has no tension on it vertically, but the pumpkin has taken out all of the horizontal slack. With the straight stem this could potentially pinch the vine in a "V" latter in the season.

With the goal to be preventative, a little moving now, should help ensure it is good to go for the rest of the season.
