1014, plant is just huge compared to 1408. I trimmed up some of the growth around the stump, problem was, I trimmed the cut main a little more to make it look nicer and made a mistake. When I trimmed it up, where I cut it was hallow inside still. So now I have an open vine sticking straight up. Not the best thing to do!!! Dumb me. :) I put up shade cloth over the tip since it will be really hot the next few days. I also put up a little tent cover over the cut main so my mister sprinkler will not put water into the hole in the vine. I think it should be ok, but mad at myself for the mistake. MY heart wants to grow this plant, it looks extremely big and aggressive, qualities that are hard to pass up. I will give both plants another 2 weeks before culling probably.
