The main vine of the 1250 Kline started splitting crosswise today at about 14 or so feet. It happened right after a female blossom, which is kind of lucky since it could’ve been right before. After posting about it I’ve decide to terminate the main and take the secondary at the same leaf junction as the blossom and train it to be a new main vine. I’d keep this blossom as the keeper but the plant just isn’t big enough yet, so unless I can’t get anything else to set, this one will just be a practice. If anything terminating the main vine might encourage the side vines to grow a little faster. This all could have been avoided however. The vine ends had been doing a lot of ‘bonering up’ right before the main split, and I got lazy and went a day or two without repositioning the bamboo stakes and paid the consequences.
