  1. that is good you can save on veg then


  2. sprouts are the result of stress/shock.  the lightning probably killed the top of the tree, and the sprouts are all you will have left.  

  3. The roots weren't killed so the tree is sending up new shoots to replace damaged areas.

  4. Hi

    Probably because it was struck by lightening.
