my mai vines are also growing in the direction of the first true leaf,
and as a result are about to push over a limestone retaining wall with
their almighty strength and rapid growth - i wish.
re: male flowers - I also have lots of male flowers, but am about one
month away from wanting to pollinate - the question is, would it be
beneficial to remove these flowers so that growth energy is concentrated
to roots and vines? Would there be any difference or would the shock
negate any positive effects?
thanks
