Thanks for stopping by canawhatsis. It is good to know this log is entertaining. As I said earlier we will take this to the end, Be it bitter or sweet.

Yesterday I began to tie them down. Started on the largest plant in the gulch. First I braced the stem. Used 1/4in rope and wrapped it around the stem tight so splitting is not going to happen. Then I pulled the tops over on the opposite way of the brace. This oppened the middle up to the sun and should increase my yield.

Pic 1. Taken after the tiedown. Plants will grow into any space with sun so I do not expect to see the big hollow center for long.

Pic 2 is my stem and bracing. Looks Mickey Mouse but it will work.
