I made a thread several years ago that explains the microclimate on the farm where the Dwarf Namwa in this thread were grown. I think some members were confused because they didn't understand how to pronounce the words in the title of the thread.

homograph

One of two or more words that have the same spelling but differ in origin, meaning, and sometimes pronunciation, such as wind (wĭnd) and wind (wīnd).

I grow on the top of a mountain ridge overlooking the ocean and the wind flows in one direction, and because of this the 'plant crops' pseudostems curve downwind while 'ratoon crops' lean away from the mother plant. If the rachis faces into the wind they tend to be clean and if they're protected from the wind they tend to retain their bracts.
