The trellised vine turned out nice, I think it was worthwhile. This was the only vine after the pumpkin. Perhaps its a morale boost for the plant to have one vine still going.

And, it could act as a relief valve, if I hit the plant with too much of this-or-that?

It allows me to monitor the nutrient flow to the pumpkin because if there was an excess or a deficiency, it would show up accurately here on this vine.

Looks to me like there's huge nutrient excesses in the back of the plant, but everything's just about perfect at the front of the plant...

Probably still short on zinc and phosphorous.
