Re: So Cal Report !!

The stem on my 712 Kuhn split by its self I didn't help it but it was in the
favor of the plant to do so. it is growing nicely and my 845 Bobier is still
in a major world of pain !! i figured out what i will do and looks like I
will keep the 845 Bobier as only a main vine and lead it straight out of the
patch and then try and set a pumpkin on it as a genetic pumpkin and let the
massive 790 Daletas take the 1200 sqft over. I always wanted to grow a 1000 sqft or
larger plant but have been too greedy with my ground space.
One reason my vines are crimping is because I tried small mounds one foot
high and about three feet across this put way too much pressure on the plants
as they came off the mound my 790 Daletas had a three foot secondary pointing
straight out and it too crimped down to reach the soil but is not too bad !!
As it goes for treating wounds I am not big on putting chemicals on them I
like to let the air just simply dry them and all I have to do is keep them
dry once a vine calluses over you can bury it if you want but I would not just
in case !!! well I hope all of your seasons are going great !!!!
