Bad new on the 2112 Stelts today, the main vine made a hard 90 degree angle overnight and snapped at 12’ . No idea what caused this, but secondary is turned straight and is the same size as the main vine. So I will use it as a new main vine. This happened right where a pumpkin was, it was really odd. It almost looked like the plant wanted this secondary for a main vine, it is perfectly straight and inline with the main vine. I think it is still going to be fine and able to support a Giant, (hopefully). Now I really wish I had pollinated the first pumpkin on the main vine at 12’ instead of culling it off:(
