I've been away from growing for 10 years because of college and work, but I am thrilled to be back. I've established a new patch over an existing grass field. It is 60 ft by 25 ft. I tilled it, sent the soil off to Western Labs and made my amendments. I have 3 plants in the ground with 500 square feet each. I have 2 Connolly 2310s and one generic Wallace whopper I grew as a backup. Sadly my two Wallace 2344.5 plants both died right after their first true leaf started. I still have another Wallace whopper generic backup inside. I'm doing it on a budget but trying to do all I can. My plants are inside amazon greenhouses with small heaters, lamps, and heating coils. I learned today reading here I need to reposition my lights to get the plants to lay down and not grow upwards. This one plant named white spot (it had a white spot on one of its cotyledons) now has these yellow spots on one of its leaves. Do any readers have any guesses what might be causing it? Next on my to do list is to put up a silt fence to cut down on wind and keep the varmints at bay. With the warm weather coming this weekend the greenhouses will be going away.
