RE: June 1st - Bhaskaran Patch Update....


 I was curious how I was doing this year. Thanks for the info. I have a 731
Jepsen (500 Northrup x 981 Zunino) at 103" as of June 1! My next 2 are
Jepsen 571 @ 99" and Hilger 875 @ 89".
Can't seem to get any heat up here yet and expecting cool nights for awhile.
Maybe next year I'll build a 20'x20' hothouse.
Praying to the Sun God so I can start pumping N and get them in the open
air.
Thanks to Steve Jepsen for the stock. May he grow a monster!

Howdy!? Hopefully, things are going well for all!
Every year, I do a June 1st measurement and compare...
I did measure tonight and here are the Main Vine Lengths...
#1 - 1689 Jutras - 108" 
#2 - 1272 Brunst - 102"
#3 - 1568 Conolly - 99"
#4 - 1087 Bhaskaran - 97"
#5 - 1161 Rodonis - 95" 
#6 - 1290 Poirier - 89"
#7 - 1385 Jutras - 88"
#7 - 985 Werner - 88"
#9 - 1566 Rodonis - 87"
#10- 904 Stelts - 74"
How does it compare?
2005 - 60"/36"
2006 - 95"/72"
2007 - 140"/87"
2008 - 84"/24" 
2009 - 108"/74"

2009 ranks at #2! Woohoo! Now just have to dodge some Frosts in MN ;-)
