Re: double main...
In my experience a double vine either straightens out into one
vine, splits into two vines after a few leaves or goes
completely flat vine. When they go flat vine it usually
happens pretty quick. If your plant has gone four or five
leaves as a double and hasn't split into two yet, my guess is
that it will straighten itself out into a single vine.
My problem is that I would have a hard time pulling a perfectly
healthy 869 Calai for a confused 845 who doesn't know what he
wants to be.....
Best of luck
