Re: 2002 plants
Adam: Congrats on your Emmons 1262! I've not been as fortunate. My Emmons
1262 has been struggling and although the cotyledons have emerged from the
seed, there are no roots to support the growing giant which I suspect will
lead to a quick death. It has been 10 days since planting. Anyone have
experience in saving a germinated but not rooted seed?
