Cutting main vine
It has been a great season here in the NW. However, my plant only gave me one fruit this year, and as fate has it, i have had to cut the main vine about 3 inches past the only fruit. (It would have pulled away from the vine)
So my question is... how much do you think I have hurt the potential growth of this fruit?? I mean, doesn't most of the uptake of nutrients come from before the fruit? Has anyone had this experience before??
