Wait til the first starts to unfurling and then cut the parts that hold the next leaf. That should help. But someone here posted also, that he simply cuts the P-stem a few inches back and the problem usually disappears as quietly, as it came.

Got any pics? It would be a shame if you cut into a bud.

IT split the stem this morning and one of the leaves were turning brown so I cut out the brown one and trim the split stem down to the center leaf. I also saw that a pup had broken ground over night and has already one leaf open and another coming out.
