More defoliation and trimming off of twiggy branches. I hope I'm doing things right but this bush is just out of control. I think the largest plant appears to be doing some stretching. Every time I see what I think is a bud site starting it just turns into more leaves lol.
I was running into problems where either the drip stakes were not flowing well or the plant is just consuming a lot of water. Got some drip rings(Netafim Netbow 5" 4 Outlet Drip Irrigation Ring) and really like these much better.
My runoff pH is in the low 5's so I have been feeding at 6.2 for awhile. Not seeing the runoff pH change really though.
