 Francesca  I am not refering to the number of increases. Just 
the  'leek-look'  as Linda Mann named it. Some of the increases have 
the 'leek-look'  also. I to have not seen that many seedlings, my 
first year for any SDB seedlings. I have had first year TB seedling 
with 5 or six increases.

Was just wondering if it was common.
