Thanks for the help guys. It's amazing how much you can learn in just a few short days.

I understand exactly what you mean about being at mother nature's mercy, oldmac. I all ready had to tie to trees around a week ago when a couple of bad storms came through. It worked really well. I never thought of the umbrella idea but if these plants get as big as I think they will, I doubt it would work in my situation. It will always be an option though because I don't have to worry about being low profile :thumbsup:.
