Loosen 2 or 3 more roots, at least, Dave. You need to raise that main root a little more, leave it well-loosened. It's better to keep the main root elevated; don't worry about having a few roots in the soil; you have plenty of them in the plant.

I was very aggressive (and too late) with my fruit last year when this happened on my 1206. I used a come along and a very wide 20’ towing strap to roll the fruit forward and hope it would get a new flat spot. I stuffed sand and pool noodles under the spot I needed to raise. It did help for a while, but I had simply caught it too late. Best get on it quicker than I did. I think it’s fixable if you get to it early.

Ok...I'll do the easy task first...loosen some roots. This is a Dap 30 PB for me and it's growing so early and so fast I really did catch me "off guard".

I think it’s early enough to fix. You got this Dave!
