Time to record some things for the future. Started my drench program as temps cooled considerably and we had good soaking rain yesterday so the cocktail should be absorbed nicely. The plants were running so fast in the heat and misting so it is actually nice to see them catching a breath and catching up in vine girth. I can tell by my morning and evening bamboo adjustments that the power and root system is catching up and not as easy to keep the tips growing nice and horizontal in the heat. More rigid with power and cooler temps means careful careful careful. Surgeons touch....and sometimes I ain't got that. Lol. So I make sure everything is right. No tendril feet messin with me and no grabbers on bamboo, remove a little dirt under previous junction if needed. And then do the wiggle. By this I mean remove all bamboo. Grab the union behind the tip gently. Hold it up a bit and wiggle tip and that union. A very delicate jiggle. Just making sure it has flex. Jiggle slightly a little more. You will feel a slight ease and slack. But cradle in place. Easy tip down to cradle. And cradle above.
