One thing I’ve noticed is the trunk and base limbs are really thick and sturdy. This may be key as to weather it can support a heavy fruit load or not. I still think the limbs will break and kink when they start to get heavy.

One strange thing is it’s starting to grow roots on the trunk and some limbs where the water drains and runs down them. They first appeared around the first week of July and so far don’t seem to have gotten much larger. The plant is probably so confused about now its liable to do anything. Putting on a couple maters would be a good start. }=0P

Forgot to add that it has not been sprayed with anything and has no bug damage, no hornworms, and no stinkbugs at all. I think they can’t find it since it’s upside down and hanging in the air and not on the ground where it’s supposed to be. IMHO
