After dropping the twine on my Nugget bines a third time, one of the the bines has again reached the top of the twine. I think at this point I'm going to let the top of the bine start slumping over. I read that would encourage the growth of laterals. I think that the length on that Nugget bine is at approximately 15 feet now. I think that's pretty good for a bine growing on a condo balcony.
The stumpy Cascade seems to have given up and shriveled to death. That sucks, but that's the reason I bought two rhizomes of each variety.
The surviving Cascade is still shorter than the two Nugget bines, but it's started shooting out new horizontal growth. I hope those are the laterals I've been reading about.
