Despite my best attempts to prevent root rot, I did observe some rot in March or April, I pulled off as much of it as I could get at and used high pressure water to flush the leca of as many impurities as I could. I then saw that the growing tip died back, and thought well, here we go again, but surprisingly soon after the tip died back, it put on a peduncle near the end of the vine and actually started budding up!
