Default Re: Stalks splitting/separating

Couple of mine look like Chong's upper pic w/ leafs pulling away from stem. I think it's from too cold & too much moisture.
I also have some splitting at base which I think is good! It means it's growing fast & base is swelling & leafs are splitting there. I think warm weather & sun (& good drainage) will all help.
