I have a split in vine.AT base the main vine goes one way and secondary going the other. Should I go a head and finish the cut? And should I spray seven direct to severd area? The plants are Desroiers 625 2001 it has about 30 plus leaves and main vine is about 6 feet.And the other 370 shape 2001 this one has the best looking leaves 20 inches across main vine about 5 feet long secondary are 2 feet I have not used the FISH EMULSEN this week.I think I used to much so what should I do?

Mike,
I use fish fertilizer 2-3 times a week. None of my plants have developed a "split main". Vine splits are of a genetic cause, not your fertilization frequency. Believe me, if one could predict that a particular seed had "split vine" genetics, it would be banned for life!!
