NILES , CALIF

I snapped off my main vine at 12 feet;
I have one pollination on the main vine at 8 feet;and I have 3 pollinations on 3 different secondarys;
Which one would be better to keep?

I don't know whats better but if i was in Calif with July coming on I'd go with the pol at 8 ft and swing the nearest side around (i think one at fruit is best) and run it as a main with secondaries......just leave alot of slack to manuver the fruit and maintain that sidevine as a main....this is based largely on the chances of getting a good pol in july heat in Calif.........if heat and time arent factors I would look back one side vine at a time for a promissing fruit on a sidevine nearest the break....if that fruit will pol in next 2 weeks and you havent pinched off tertiary growth yet Id train that as a main....but thats just me. I'm typically "different".
