Day 41 for my 1446 Eaton. I just finished measuring the main vine and it is at 16-17 feet--longer than I thought--puts the two females at about 13 and 15 feet. Most of the secondaries are between 5 and 8 feet long as well. I did not trim every second one as I had planned because they are pretty widely spaced, and I wanted to get good coverage on my mound. I will probably trim more of the secondaries beyond the fruit set. Spent about 2 hours moving more dirt and trimming tertiaries. Also, looks like my greenhouse will last about 2 more days--yet another addition. i am now preparing the wind break for when I absolutely must pull apart the greenhouse. 3 more females appeared on two other secondaries. These ones are unusually small compared to the ones on the main vine--and two of them are quite closely spaced. Looks like I may get my first male today or tomorrow. Unfortunately, pictures are a no go because it is to impossible to take a good shot underneath my greenhouse. I will post an updated shot when I rip apart some of the greenhouse.
