What's bad about posts like this is that someone might read it and think if I do everything just right maybe it'll work, but it doesn't and it won't. Just because you don't realize the damage you're doing doesn't mean it's not happening.


Best thing to do is to bend the leaves down, this does very little damage and it will continue to function.
