Best Answer

A sucker that grows from the side of the main stem of the plant and can cause the plant to grow distorted and not straight. You can remove these suckers when they reach about one and a half inches with a pencil or skinny object and stick it in where the sucker is growing and pop it off, they usually pop off very easy. Plant them in some soil less soil in a 2 or three inch pot, water sparingly and place pot and sucker into a quart size zip lock back for 6 to 8 weeks. Leave bag open when you see moisture building up and let bag dry out a little bit, then zip it up again.
