Patch Update
15 days after germination the Greer 694 is doing well compared to the
625 Kennedy which is lagging behind. They both have two true leaves but in
the 90 degree heat recorded today the Kennedy is wilting while the Greer is
not. The Greer is also larger in leaf size and stalk thickness. They both
germinated on the same day and are recieving the water ever other day with
miricle grow in dilute forms twice a week. The 420 reynolds was also started
with these two plants but has lagged behind so far in growth that I have
pulled it and started a 720 Welty, 405 Sanchez, and 460 Thomas to replace it.
I am not sure which one to use at this point but the Welty and Thomas both
seem to be doing well after germinating on the 6th day after planting. I
took the Sanchez seed out of the soil on day 4 to see if it had started and
it had. This pretty much screwed it up and it is day 8 and germination has
just occured. A test is soon going to be done on 405 Sanchez seeds in
respect to techniques to increase germination rates in AG plants.
