No matter what the growth achieved is fantastic. Out of curiousity what type of fertilizer do you use?

Thought it might be interesting to discuss this point from Sauce. If this were a forest planting, one would expect the tallest part of the forest to be over the primary tree (thickest trunk). I think this tree works just fine with the apex over one of the secondary trunks. But why does it work here, where the "forest" is essentially all gathered together? Or perhaps most agree with Sauce that it doesn't work?
