I recently read a book about greenhouses. In the book there was a section on how to control the growth of plants in a greenhouse, specifically vines. It said you could slow the growth of a plant at a certain point just by shaking or squezing that part for 30 seconds everyday. It said you could also encourage a plant to put out side shoots by shaking the main growth point. I thought this would be a great way to force my vinier neps to slowdown and produce some basal shoots. It also explains why many of the experts don't like to touch their plants very often.
I hope you all enjoyed this little bit of info and feel free to post any questions or praises. J/K
