hi, the 935 that i,m growing is actually doing better than the larue 916 and
the mettler 865 and looks real healthy. i noticed last year with the 815
anderson that i planted 3 and they all looked kinda sickly and were very
slow to get rolling . i almost gave up on them. when they did start to take
off they went like gang busters, big leafs and vines. point is don,t give up
yet you never know. good luck craig
