the fucking permit to be cooler than most other people in the us....you mean the building permit for the tree fort.
they say a house is only as good as it's foundation. i will never again grow big plants from clones. clones don't get a deep tap root. they tend to get more bushy roots. this causes the plant to be loose in it's foundation. i went out this morning at took a closer look. she was about ready to tip over. to weight of all the branches was causing her to lean at about 60 degrees. i took a long piece of steel rod and hammered it at an angle into the ground like a tent stake. then i took a chunk of rope and hitched her upright and tied her off.

that could be real good to know
is this something you've notice with all clones you've grown out nice and big?
or do you just notice it only on clones (maybe not all but most or something)
i notice it in a lot of the clones that get 3' and over. the roots fan out in all directions. they have no solid hold in the ground. maybe if i shape my hole different. i've seen this a lot in pots also. last year i had to stake main stalks because they were falling over. with seeds they send a main root straight to the bottom of the pot then grow outwards from that. clones start out already growing outward.

... i know it might be more work, but do you think that might be remedied by transplanting to a few differnet sized pots, letting them fill the pots each time (you know what i mean, filling out a bunch of pots that are just a little bigger instead of going from like 1/2 gal to 1 gal to 3 gal +)?
