and a final weekly pic of "it" on day 53. with the more pronounced ribbing and coloring of both the 1385 and 1185 in just the past week from last weeks pics shows to me that the heat wave has accelerated the maturity rate a bit. like a tomato or an apple starting to ripen. the powdery mildew on the 1161 has advanced heavily and an eradictor will be here monday afternoon for a monday evening spray in cooler temps. the 1385 and 1185 are still more resistant, but after some more inspection this morning, an eradictor is a must at this point as the systemics can't keep up. thanks tremor for the info on the message board, you are the man.
