I asked here a while back about keeping two plants
in
a small patch and received some sound advice.
So
it seems some here do this regularly. It's
from you
I seek more.
My Cramer729 is a bit more stout than the
Cramer824.
The 824 has two marble size females at ~ 9 and 12
feet
out but the 729 is dry so far. I like the idea of
keeping
both knowing that I'm not in this for the weight
just the
fun.
So, is there a point when no more room is an
issue?
The main on the 729 has started up a hill and
might
have 10 more feet before reaching the curb. Uh
what
to do if an AG is on a hill? The 824 is
heading into
precious strawberry territory. Both have
secondaries
heading towards two layers of fence with a tangle
of
bushes where no fruit could be tended to. "Uh yah
my pumpkin is in there somewhere..."
Bottom line then:
What does a young plant do if it gets nipped
before
fruiting? I get the impression that nipping
secondaries
is not so bad, please correct me if I'm delusional,
and
what about the main?
thanks in advance,
