My season is going pretty well. Some plants better than others. I have a couple of solid pollinations on my 1832.5 Graham and one on the 2200 Geddes. Trying to get one to stick on the 2294.5 Noel. My latest YouTube video is also live: YouTube video

40 days old on the 1832.5 Graham x 2294.5 Noel. Estimated at 833 lbs, with a 5 day average of 46.8 lbs per day. It's got some stem splits that seem to be under control. This was treated with Anthesis and its delayed growth curve has almost caught up with my personal best.
