i imagine in 4 days you will barely be able to tell it happened minus a couple of gaps. all bent leaves that folded and snapped will get cut clean and captan will be applied. there are leaning disheveled leaves that are whipped up but not snapped or bent. with the walking boards strategically placed in between every 3rd secondary all the way to the main, i was able to get in and re-assemble many of these leaves and use the surrounding leaves to put them back in order. i use the leaf and the weight of a sturdy straight up one and move the leaves blown out of place next to them and then they are supported and back where they are supposed to be. also the walking boards let me get in easily to upright and stabilize the roll overs with the 6' and 8' garden stakes. i will get a look at the mains better in the morning, but from what i saw working in the drizzle at twilight, i think and hope just another punch that hasn't knocked me or the plants out yet. another feeling like steve mcqueen in papillon when he is floating on his raft made of coconuts in the middle of the ocean looking up at the sky yelling, "i am still here ya bastard!"
