Update after 24 hours from pollination, the one on the Paynter 700 with shade and ice looks like it will abort.
The one 15' ft. out on store bought AG took under shade no Ice is 2 1/4" stem to blossom this morning. the one 18' out is in the compost with about 3' of main vine went to look last night after dark and stepped square on main vine just behind punkin. f#%@ %#...

The one 4' from stump on secondary (not 5') took is twice the size from pollination (3") and looks like will be the keeper on the store bought ag it is shaped like a lemon.
the one pollinated on the 9th is 3" and is round like a base ball.

the four foot one out was least desired cause it was on a secondary and had one set on main already but pollinated it any ways for the hell of it, no shade or ice. temp reached 38 C or 100 F and with humidex felt like 45 C or 110F. This thing has impressed me and it has only been 24 hours will keep a close eye till culling time. Pic enclosed
I've named the little darling "Pork Chop"
