Even in the first year up to fruit picking time? I grow the various
hybrids, and would expect about 8 ft.

I'm not going out now to measure mine (Oo-er!) but I'd estimate fifteen
to eighteen feet - and those were terminated before *THEY* had
intended...

http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/...fruity_001.jpg - rather more
than 8 feet, I'd have said...

How old are the shoots in question?

Judging by blowing-up the pic, the one disappearing off the right of the
pic will be about one year old - no flowers or fruit visible, so I guess
the pic was taken in the spring - April, probably, as there are flowers
coming on now.

I shall be taking one as far as it will go, this year - one of the
shoots is around two-foot six inches high ATM, and well over an inch
thick at the base.

The website is currently unavailable as all Zetnet's websites are being
'migrated' (I tried to open it today, and it wouldn't...). 5th May is
supposed to be the unveiling day.
