After ll/cl gets the right three columns, much of the next two, and three chunks of white (where the green can't go along the top and left edges)

interior edge logic 5 c2: no matter where it goes in the lower chunk, it will force a too-small block in c3. So c2r27-33 must be white.

LL/CL nearly finishes it


edge logic 1 r31: if it were to go in either c16 or c17 it would force a block of one in r29 making a conflict. So r31c16-17 is white.

LL to finish.

I really thought it might be a corn stalk. Sorry. Very tough puzzle for me. Had to guess once.
