Jim and any takers,
my 8 plants sent mains out in all directions............north, south , east
and west....................I know most growers like to plant with the main
going south.......some say they like east and west and perfer to have there
secondaries go north and south........some say a particular way the plant
picks up more rays...........to me its all the same but i was wondering
what the theory was behind it being that it is a flat plane all shading
seems equal...
Just got back for a buddies place and he was doing a test on commercial
planting mixes..........he was using tomatoes.....this is a good idea to
test the mix you are planning on using as not all batches are created
equal.....and before you germinate that pricless wonder....make sure its
getting the best possible start it can get....................Brock
