Vegetative growth has definetly slowed down. It hasn't stopped completely, but I can see the stems at the end of some 20ft+ secondaries turning shades of yellow, appearing to have nutrient difficiencies. By not fertilizing and then burying each node (no MYCOZ either!) I see not how the tarp has really held me back. This is what I get by doing something as an afterthough. BUT, holding my feet to the fire has at least come this far. I am having some tertiaries and new growth around the stump lately. Going in there to cut it back, I noticed some scondaries that have Vine Borer damage at the first node leaving the trunk. I was not dilligent enough applying the SEVIN, especially to protect the main stump and base. I worry about how much destruction will occur before this wave leaves the vine and pupates. I applied a good measure of SEVIN around the stump, trunk, before the fruit, and where the secondaries branch off. I will be more diligent in the future. I am using SAFER 3in1 to protect my fruit, and apply every week. So far the hunting blind has been perfect cover against the elements.
