Tuesday, July 6 View Page Few days ago I found this on the 1306 plant... Tuesday, July 6 View Page But i noticed it the same morning it started.I drilled a hole in it, released fluids, put captan down, installed a fan, and dug a hole for the fluid to go, and had a towell in the hole you see soaking up the water. Didnt stop, so i drilled another hole under MV before 1st secondary, still wont stop....so... Tuesday, July 6 View Page I did this! Tuesday, July 6 View Page I cut up to this point and am confident rot hasnt gone any farther. so next step is some bleach, keep the fan on it for 1-2 more days,and keep adding some captan, if it keeps up..I'll cut it off.Bummer to this WAS my best plant!
