Two of mine are also growing either side of an arch, that has two vertical "stakes" to grow up, so once the trombas are long enough to wrap around either the vertical or the horizontal stakes, I do so. Until then they hang freely

I decided to take the one that has been restricted off the plant as I was a bit worried that it would fall off, and I didn't want that to happen, even though it had been trapped it was still firm from end to end, here are some photos
it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

Sorry, it's in grams, I can't think in lbs. and oz But I believe the scales are smarter than me and can do both.

Golly gosh. I'm going to have to find some way of taking and posting photos. Very low tech here and terrible data allowance.
Anyway, one of Sid's Sidettes is looking like I might need to pick her soon. Going paler green and fattening up.Comment

Ok just looked under the bush - and they were there hiding. Have three at the moment - the last one measures 32 inches - will attempt a pic - do I need to weigh it now??Comment

This is my biggest so far. It's 20 inches long, and a good 7.5 inches girth (!!)
I can't weigh it - I gave it to a friend at work!Comment

Issy that's a good size, any chance of a photo, but more important what do you grow them in?, soil, compost or whatit may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.
