I have three fruit that I pollinated in the past week, at 12', 14' and 18'(maybe even 19'...didn't measure that closely). They all seem set so far. The two closer ones are 4 lobers, the 18' or 19' a 5 lober. The furthest one out has the best vine position. I'll definitely let them all grow to at least soccer ball size. Which one should I favor? (I'm pretty sure the 12' will go, since I used males from two different plants.)

two things

if you pollinate with males from two different plants you now have an unknown cross

i would go for the 18' in good position, but measure to see which is growing the fastest, 14' is a great spot as well
