Hello friends.
I have a Charles grimaldi on my deck in a huge pot. It was growing just like I wanted, 1 main stalk w/ 1 "Y" then another "Y" shows up. I'm trying to get this guy to stretch out taller. Do I want to let the plant Y off as it likes? It's a 2ft tall brug and has plenty of buds below. Should I leave the Y if I'm going for a taller brug? Also, would I be promoting another Y via pruning off this 1 like in many other plants? I'm posting a couple pictures so you can see what I mean. The 1st is a top view of the main Y and how 1 side is trying to Y off again
