Snip the smaller one, cut off the early fruit. Normally I wouldnāt say this, but your plant is apparently trying to grow a fruit that will end up quite close to its own size, and that wonāt work very well. It also looks like youāre overwatering a little. The soil surface (top inch or so) needs to be almost totally dry before you consider adding more water

Honestly… If a plant has given you a fruit when it’s that small, then it’s already expended a lot of its energy and I’d be tempted to call it a day with it.
It happens, I’ve had it a few times. Just one of those things.
duckieahhh
Its so cuteeee! I’ve always cut iff any fruit /veg off this early in so it has time to build a better root system and strength. They use a lot of energy trying to grow anything this early so good luck if it has enough energy left to stay standing!
