on all 3 of my ag's, i am starting to have new leaves, and looks like new secondaries, beginning to grow about 4-6 inches out from where the main vine "trunk", comes out of the ground. this has started over the last few days. should i cut them off, or should i let the new secondaries just take off and run opposite the main. also if i cut, i would guess i would at least leave the new leaves???? thanks for input in advance.

Hey AG-L, Point them 90 degrees out from the main if ya got the room and let them go out as far as you can. The plant will end up looking like a christmas tree. Don't let the first secondaries off the vine have secondaries grow on them. tertiaries to the main are no no's. grow em big!

I have the same thing on one of my aggresive plants it's shooting out lots of secondairys by the stump.I found that my plant does not put mutch energy into this new growth so I dont think its worth growing out.I just keep tiping them but like you said I let the plant keep the leaves it's formed.Good luck!!!!!

If you were to treat this new growth like you would a main or secondary...staking up, burry, etc......it would be just like all the others. I have a ...geez, its gotta be at least 15thary vine...thats the thickness of a half dollar....(on the clone)........G
