Oh the drama! The skin is starting to split again! Its done this before and healed itself just fine, like a scar. With it being so late in the season, I don't now if it will heal the same way. I'm not sure if I should go ahead and cut it or leave it on the vine. My fear is that if I leave it on the vine it will continue to grow slightly and split. However, it also gives it the chance to heal. If I cut it now it will stop the splitting but will it be able to heal without being still connected to the plant? I've applied Captan to the splits since this picture was taken. Any suggestions are welcome!
