Some stats :

My 1157, 3 feet, down and looking good.

1193 Snyder, 3.5 feet, down and running. This plant is looking very thick and is producing a lot of leaves near the stump. I pruned a mess of them yesterday. Very heavy vine at this early in the game.
1274 wolf, around 8 ft long and sides are 3 ft long.1st female is around 6 ft out. I will let that one go and try to pollinate the next one that I see developing now.

1060 Zoellner is around 14 ft out with sides 3.5 ft long. I pollinated 1 yesterday just for practice. Too close (6 ft out) and I never set the vine up.I hope another one develops soon.
I want to extend my patch by 10 more feet in length to make it an even 100 feet. My main vine on the 1060 is at the edge now and growing fast.I am hopeing to get it tilled up in 2 or 3 days weather permitting.Patch is still a very, soggy mess and it needs tilled bad. Very compacted from all the rain. I still have amendments to put down.
