You`ll probably kill them if you attempt to move them at this point. At best, the plant might survive, but it`s growth will be retarded to the point that it won`t fruit properly. Leave them alone and see what happens. I harvest lots of gourds that find their way into the shade...As long as it gets some sun on some part of its vine, it oughta be able to produce food. The largest common kettle gourd I`ve grown (62 inches around) was on a vine that had meandered out of my field and into a Virginia Pine Tree. That gourd never saw direct sunlight, and he did quite well.
