whacked the 1161 backup and the line up is set with a 1385, 1161, and 1185. the backup 1161 tried to twist again and i took it to be a sign to whack it and keep the 1161 on the ground running straight. took the greenhouses off today and put up silt fences. i waited until about 5 pm for the greenhouse removal as it stayed a bit sunnier today than i would have liked. supposed to be a little more cloudy and cool tomorrow so i picked memorial day for there first full day of full sun. i gave the plants a good soaking drink today and mixed in some holland's bio aqua sol for a little nurishment along with more mych endo spores. supposed to get a nice soaking rain from tues. to wed. and the patch and plants will surely like some of mother natures water as opposed to joliet tap water. all watering to date has been with luke warm tap water except the hot days when the misting system was set on longer intervals. got most of the weeding in check today as well. tomorrow i will lay out some more walking boards, set the main misting system line up through the plants and attach a couple more mister heads to stay out in front of the running plants. it got too dark to take pics when all done, so i will get them in the morning. time to remember not to adjust the plants until they warm up a bit and go very gently while doing so.
