and here is the end result.i cut about 2 nodes loose on each side of the fruit to allow me to raise the vine enough to get it set up.i will be adding a lot of sand around the ring as it grows and eventually will actually support the kin with the sand.the white "board" that its on is frp(fiberglass reinforced panel), aka, shower surround board. my thinking is that the white will reflect sunlight back up and help color in the bottom some, we'll see about that in a couple months.anyway, i hope this explains the process and i'll post updates on it as the fruit grows.
