Dooms Day - Greer 1006

Well it is my turn to be bummed.

The Greer 1006 is the fastest growing of the four plants I have. The main
vine is growing 10" a day and it is out 52" as of this morning.

I do not know if this is going to be a genetic trait of the plant or not
but it would appear that the leaf stems and leafs are to big and heavy for
the young main vine. 

I have built more than an adequate enough wind shelter, yesterday I found a
split at the 4th leaf axle, it went slightly into the main vine but did not
penetrate. Today I found a severe split beneath the second true leaf axle,
this one would appear to have gone into the main vine.

I don't know if I am doing something wrong, I have only just been able to
bury a foot or so of main vine, the remainder still has not settled on the
ground.

Cut off 3 leafs, made paste of captan for splits in the main vine.

I think I may very well be doomed with this plant and the season has just
started!

Bummed!
