Here is a picture of the second primary about 4 feet from the stump. As you can see it is pretty full of rot. I don't know how I missed it, as it is in the open--but I didn't see it until today. The tap root that extends from the lower juncture is incredibly thick--thicker than my thumb. In fact the whole second primary is very thick and has nice leaves and good secondaries with good tap roots--I think they are contributing a lot to the power of the plant and I don't want to lose them. Losing this primary would rid me of about one-fifth of the plant. So today I cut off the rot and rubbed lots of sulphur powder in the remaining wound. I also pulled any wet dirt from around the area and constructed a makeshift "cover" to keep it dry while I water during the day (see the cover in next pic).
