Still battling with anthracnose on the newer leaves. I've added mancozeb to my daconil rotation and also cut back on overhead watering.

The 1622 is just under 400sqft now with another 350 or 400 to go. I may begin to terminate it early if the pollination on 6/23/2010 takes off. Burying all leaf nodes with myco and 0-0-60 muriate of potash. Sometimes I add in alfalfa or humic acid. I probably should have bought 0-0-50

The fruit pollinated on 6/23 is in an excellent position with 110° angles to the main. I missed the morning pollination on a 95°F day, so my fingers are crossed.
