The dreaded blowout. Spooky. I wonder, were you fertilizing at really
high rates or do you think that this plant is prone to blow-outs? I'm
curious to hear about that plant since I traded away THREE of those
seeds for my 876.5 Lloyd, 940 Mombert, and 490 Donkers. When you say
it's an amazing plant . . . vigorous growth, leaf size, ability to
produce 5 and 6 lobed females, what? The 940 is a true animal in each
of these categories.
