Damn that's a beautiful plant! Wish I had advice to help you out... I'm sure someone will... Just had to comment on that plant! Absolutely mouth watering, and there aren't even buds yet... Good luck protecting your baby (more like full growin' woman) Props!:clap:

Thats actually not a bad idea. Only construct pyramid style to a point on top. The side branches will come in. Something heavy on sides.. like plywood or heavy canvas straped down very well. It may be exposed to some very heavy winds and strong winds no matter.. as it will come close from what I hear, but land north of you. Whatever you do..Dont depend on the trunk to hold your tree up...

Holy mother of god. What a beautiful mature lady you have there!!!

No wonder you're peaking, I'd be too!!

We don't get hurricanes here, but do get cyclones. For this reason I always grow in a pot. But sheeeze. Looking at your baby (err mummy), I think I better start putting them back in the ground.

I think putting some sort of structure around it would be my choice (damn brick wall her in lol). Hope all goes well, wish you all the best and pray that storm misses you by far.

Much luck to you bud. If you get 80mph winds, there isn't much you can do. If you strap it down enough, the leaves will be torn off one by one. Hopefully it misses you.

I'd get digging holes, get some iron pipe, concrete and construct a Curly Howard structure around it. A T-pee shape would be best or anything with an angle to allow rain to drain off. What to drain off of is the other question? 6 mil plastic? Plywood? Netting aint going to help. I think 6 mil plastic doubled up could do it if it is secure enough. If in doubt build a shed around it.
