watered in some azos yesterday and got a little on the one of the 1493 leaves. no biggie. watered in biota max last week along with some "thrive" (a liquid myc fungi product and these biologicals combinied: Bacillus subtillis, Pseudomonas aerugiensis, Bacillus thurngiensis, Pseudomonas fluourescens, Glomus intraradius, G. aggregatum, G. mossaae, G. etunicatum)
these 1493s look a little ragged from the 94 degree day last week when the mister head clogged and wasn't misted until 3 pm when i got home. the one on the left completely tilted and laid down one night from the condensation dripping on the leaves and base of plant. the looser potting soil that i used to incorporate corn seed maggot defenses in with after losing the 1209 and 1605 in this greenhouse allowed the plant with the moisture from condensation to lean to the heavy side. this meant all the leaves were tilted also. so i propped up some of the leaves to keep them off the ground until they reached back for the sky. luckily the base of plant did not bend, kink or split while doing so. this now made the plant easily trainable to run horizontal. it has a 6" stubby main with the first tendril on it. it also has one burnt leaf from that hot day without the mister. same exact burnt 4th tru leaf as on the 991 last year at the same time. selfing weirdness. i had to remove the second true leaf after the tilt to allow the plant the ability to lay down. the 1493 to the right is same exact size with 6" stubby main with one tendril but sticking straight up with a very stout stem. so stout it did one of those early fissuring shallow surface verticle splits on the back side directly under the cots with rapid expansion and has since healed back up fine. they will get their time to prove the winner of the spot.
