Default Re: Fruiting the bigger plants another way. Crazy?

When you do that to most plants, they try to regain height very quickly. They may end up being slightly shorter but at the expense of a steched out plant and a very small fruit bunch. Growing at a angle is an option, although if you dont keep them in check they will curve and bend upwards eventually. If thats your problem, just grow dwarfs!
