fdd, i have a question about your plants and the way they get their nutrients.
it seems that a plant that goes to basically all branch from the bottom would deliver its good stuff from the roots to the tips less efficiently than a plant with a main stalk, then to smaller branches.
i am going off of other gardening i do, so i might have a flawed concept of what is actually happening.
what do you think?

i think a plant knows how to take care of itself. millions of years of evolution have taught it what it needs to survive. i think if long spindly branches were less efficient then it wouldn't grow that way. i do my best to supply them with the good soil and plenty of food. from there it's on them. :weed:

of course the plant will adapt, so does a three legged dog
i think your plants are great, it is just that i wish you left one untouched.

oh well, i wish i had a long season:?

what do you mean by "untouched"? i have a lot of them that i haven't touched. the ones i did touch i trimmed off dead or dying growth or growth that wasn't producing. what do you want to see? i have one somewhere. :weed:

NICE I like that statement.
It seems to me that you are indeed testing out many different ways of "doing it" in search of your best results; am I correct?

untopped, untrained, untrimmed, ................ IMG_8972.jpg

the centers die off. the canopy is so thick that no sunlight gets thru and everything in the center dies off. then i go in and trim it. i have not trimmed this on at all. no topping or training. it was a cutting from the plant next to it. i got it to root then stuck it in the ground. i put a tomato cage around it but did not top, trim or train it. :weed:
