Anyone know why these vines are spliting?? Both the main & side vines are doing this. Now it is growing on a manure pile which was about 9 months old. Maybe too much .... nitrogen??? No other admenments have been added. It flowers fine and i have 4 fruits set. Its just for fun, an extra backup plant, my 907.5 kent 06, but i would like to know why in case it happens for real on a main plant. I had several of the same seed as backups & there were no indication of this when grown in the main patch. Thanks !

---YES TO MUCH---OF SOMETHING --The vine grows so fast and doesnt have all the things to compleate full growth--> zinc ->and cells dont form compleatly--- crack --snap and split -- a daily balanced feeding is best--like the> A--PROGRAM-- craig
