Lost one of the 2032's already. It popped up with rot and no true leaf. Friday, June 3 View Page pollinated the 1756 Landcaster today (93 degrees, ten feet out) 2032 is to compact, 8 foot very thick vine with some double leaves very close together, I think I hurt it with a bad combo of ferts. It has browning edges on the old leaves, I think it needs K 819.5 and 1223 Radachs are 6 foot and starting to take off 1756 is under 50% aluminet, 2032 30% aluminet(new growth flagging) the Radachs are under full sun with covered tips and handling the evil sun well Tuesday, June 7 View Page pollinated the 2032 today the flower has been cracked open for a couple of days, not sure if it will work out (97 degrees) iced and shade. next females are doubled up on same leaf node. I will try to pollinate both and hope 1 sets. Temps are over 120 on the soil with 50% aluminet.

It's slow but I'll take anything that makes it to the finish. not sure if I'm over or under watering/ to much shade? or what. I will never give up hopes of 1000#s, but I am grinding my teeth over this BS. grow baby, grow Monday, August 1 View Page 1756 Landcaster just crept over the 800 pound mark 59 DAP. new pb and state record if it survives till the weigh off. If I can another 200 pounds I'll be the happiest boy in town. 100 degree temps almost all season long, and so much to improve upon for next year.
