if the answer to both is yes then maybe. i'd leave them (especially if the answer is no to both) until the leaves start to lose their bright green color and get whitish mottling on the leaves. that is what i see when they are starting to tip over and are ready to be have the greens pushed over at the neck then dug about 10 days later.

Yeah, we are pretty close to the DTM. They're pretty close to full sized too. And yes, they do have the whitish mottling. So it sounds like I should push them over at the neck?
