I think this is an important alternative theory, especially for growers who want to test another method.

As giant pumpkin growers we do so much to our plants, it is sometimes hard to know which practices are essential and which ones are less so.

A single root that is twice as long should have access to 8x the volume of dirt, assuming it is cone shaped...? Its a legit theory that a single longer/larger root could outperform multiple shorter roots.

Maybe the secondary roots are like leaves, though, where they reach a certain size and then they dont get any bigger? My ignorance is showing, aa it often does, lol.
