Re: Let the fun continue! 2005 SE MN Bhaskaran Patch Update #2 - June 1st Status

Hi everybody!

Things are a little different here in Tennessee.  Our temp. yesterday was 90.
My plants are doing well.  My best one is the 906 Tanner followed closely by
the 736 Bhaskaran (sorry David).

We may not be able to grow "big ones" like you guys in the North, but one
thing we can grow is tomatoes!  I have several Big Zac's that I grew from
seeds and they are blooming!!

I will try to include a picture of the 906 Tanner, but I realize that not
everyone's e-mail software will allow them to see it.

Have a great year,
Charles Leonard, M.D.

  Howdy!
  Just a quick update!
  After a very cold May here in MN (18 degrees one night!), we have finally
  got heat to start June up...hit 80 degrees officially!  My vines are about
6ft
  behind last year at this time, but I'm just happy they made it! :-)

  Here are the current stats as of 6/1/2005:
  798.5 Bhaskaran  - 5ft MV...flat vine split into 2 main vines...turned  one
  into secondary.
  759.5 Bhaskaran  - 5ft MV.
  981 Zunino           - 4  1/2 ft MV.
  501.5 Beachy #1  - 4 ft MV - has female on it :-) I will not pollinate  it
as
  it is way to close.
  501.5 Beachy #2  - 4 ft MV
  1385 Daletas       - 3 1/2ft MV
  486 Bhaskaran    - 3 1/2ft MV
  1048 Companion  - 3 1/2ft MV
  1446 Eaton          - 3ft  MV
  306.5 Rys             - 3ft MV

  I should mention that the 1446 Eaton and 1385 Daletas were started about
1.5
  weeks later the rest.  Also my 698 Hester 00 didn't make it and was
replaced
  by a 1048 Companion...another red/orange.

  No updates yet on the web page.  Although I do have a picture of  them I
  should put out covered in snow in May.  :-)

  Take care and wishing everyone a great June!
