Default Grape broken training shoot

It's not uncommon for plants to sprout _2_ new growing tips if you break
one off. :-) I get my catnip plants to get really bushy by doing it on
purpose. I pinch the terminal shoot off right at a pair of leaf nodes.

I have more than one cat that gets to enjoy fresh organic catnip, so
bushy plants are good. G

I know that has nada to do with grape vines, but I'm betting that you
will get two shoots......



Hi There,

This time I just got one shoot. Can't be right all the time :-)


Was worth a shot... lol
Most plants I "top" deliberately to get them to bush out. :-)

Glad your baby is doing ok!
