Right on man !Maybe I don't know what im doing.....maybe I DO....The post was asking for help with a problem and I encounter this all the time... Am I doing something wrong....?Most all the branches on MY plants produce between a quater and a half pound...That is alot of weight to hold up...I HAVE to support all branches with supplemental supports .Wher I live the wind blows all the time HARD.The mountains produce the downdrafts that are really destructive on the garden....The thing about growing is what works for me doesnt work for you and vice versa....I have 30+ years growing.Are YOU an outdoor grower??? Lets see todays photos of your garden!! Heres mine .....Havent seen many pictures of your OUTSIDE stuff....Please share!I dont claim to know it all about growing I can only say what works for ME! PEACE........
