Nicole Vabre(zone 4 NW Iowa)Updated July 18, 2015 There is no true definition of basal break, even by the ARS - that's somewhat of a quote from that thread, not exact, but you get the idea! Serious stuff, Cynthia. Serious stuff, lol! ;)

nippstress - zone 5 NebraskaUpdated July 17, 2015 Chris - thanks for the clarification, and it makes a lot more sense once you mention pinching off soft new growth rather than pruning hard established cane. Essentially it seems to be the same growth stimulant as pinching off the ...
