To see this working, head to your live site.
I would just trim it to resemble a normal vine. Keep one secondary and remove the male and extra tendrils. I'd remove the female unless you really want it as backup.
I'm with Ryan on this. Trim the crap off & just leave 1 vine to act as your main.
Done thanks guys!
Can someone tell me where I can get an updated measuring chart I've been using one from 2009
I have a fruit at 211 inches at day 20 how much is that?
215lbs
Going to be nice and orange.
Sorry forgot to mention that's the 1803 Hoelke
1803 Hoelke starting to pick back up after a couple cool days and lots of cool nites
This is the split in the main on the 1803 that happened in early June from a wind storm about 3 feet ahead of the stump, I was going to pull the plant but John Vincent said he had seen a lot worse glad I listened
looks good dan. very similar shape and colour to mine last year.
This is the 1585 Werner at day 27 240 OTT this plant is high maintenance lots of sunburned leaves and we haven't had a lot of sun and it doesn't like the wind either
They do look similar Ryan but I don't think I can top yours lol
1803 Hoelke 7 day average 39 lbs could be a new PB fingers crossed
Just keep those leaves healthy and it will keep cruising. Nice numbers.
Came home to find this tonite on the 1803 no smell and no ooze but it's deep sprayed with alcohol patched with sulphur alcohol paste and put fan on wasn't going to measure till Saturday but it mite be done so today was dap 38 OTT 319
1803 today
There's probably guys that know how to try and save that stem. I don't have much experience with stem splits but the experienced guys do and may chime in.
I've seen people save them because I've seen pumpkins at weighoffs that you can see right through both sides of the stem. They cut them open to relieve stress and expose to air to prevent rot, but honestly I don't know how exactly it's done. Maybe someone will give a quick plan of attack.
