I think that you might be over-watering and over-stressing the stick.
Just like the Canadian weather stick leaning up and down; 'the stick' does the same to your plants.
The plant that craved the stick
The plant depends on the stick
The plants growth is based on the size of the stick
The stickiness of the plant, again is based on the stick.
When the plant is lonely during those long 12/12 nights, it only wants one
thing by its side...yeah its the stick.
Give your plant what she wants when she wants it; give her that stick!
Good luck getting it back up!
