Well here we are on May 27th and things continue to drag along. Slow growth seems to be the thing this season and you gotta expect it given the temps we are experiencing again this week. Last nights overnight low was I think 42°.Finally got some rain and I know others out there are battling the opposite with way way to much rain so I am not complaining by any means. the whole state went thru that last season and I feel for everyone out there dealing with mother nature and her ways. it can be very frustrating but don't give up the fight June is almost here and our extended forcast calls for much needed sun and warmer nights which should really help us get the plants kick started. Here is a pic of the 1810 as of May 26th. Photo taken by Marc. More pics to follow as I believe we will be tiling around the plant and extending a windbreak. I'll get some pics of tonights work in the patch
Good luck everyone
