1385 Jutras clone plant #1 (woods)

This clone site has turned into a double experiment. I added another clone about 2-weeks after the one I originally to see if there were any differences. Well if you look at the picture the plant on the LEFT was planted later and the plant on the RIGHT was the original planting.

What I have noticed is that for whatever reason the plant that was transplanted later is showing less signs of leaf burn and increased vigor. While it may not be as long as the originally planted clone it is growing faster and putting secondaries out more aggressively. My personal thinking is that because the later planted clone did not get hit with the Cucumber Beetle hatch and with the warm weather we have been having the transition from the greenhouse to the outside environment was minimal so the combination of these factors may have allowed it to grow more aggressively.
