Thanks everyone! This one grew into this flawless looking specimen and then stopped about 2 months ago. It has just sat there not growing or going dormant. I was starting to get concerned but turns out it has its own plans

Rolling out the 8 burner bbq - 500 pieces of wagyu steaks, sausages, eggs, onion, beetroot (for those that like beetroot), lots of veges (for those that don't like steak heheheh), buns, butter, margarine, salt, pepper, mayo etc. On O.B. here, when we do things ...... we do things big. Pulling up a chair next to DC and grabbing a 'cold one' (beer).

Ok, now I'm feeling the pressure of high expectations! All 8 have pushed out a little further today and they are all developing at the same rate so I am hopeful this will be quite a show.

Any tips on how to ensure the best bloom at this point? Those of you that have Black Pearl, do you stake the spikes?
