Re: 869 Calai flat vine / 1020 Papez FLAT VINE ?


Same here.  My 1020 has gone totally flat at about 6 ft long.  I split the
tip last night.  If that doesn't work, its secondary vine time.  But like
you said, there's damn few of those!

I have to agree,... my 1020 is a mutant .... 4 inch thick flat vine, 24
inch
leaves (young leaves) growing like a BUSH squash!!!! unbelieveable looking.
The main (flat) vine is about 10 feet now, no signs of buds (female flowers
yet) and it is not splitting off and no real secondary vine to speak of
yet.

I think this plant is going to turn into a pollinator.

Anybody out there have a 1020 Papez that is growing a normal vine?
