1723 Marshall x 1303 sweet at just about 10 feet..a hair shy and so far after 5 days she is still shiney and laid down yesterday on day 4. got a nice one you cant see in this pic at a little over 15.5' and another gonna fall from 18 to 19. problem with the 15.5' is she will be opening in the heat over 90 plus lowering the set odds. she will get a fan on her in developement to past setting for sure to keep a nice consistant temperature and increase odds. frozen jugs will come out as i will be trying the 11 footer on the 1647 also in high heat. got one semi deep in the cluster on 1647 that will fall about 17' so hoping this 11' takes for insurance like the 1723 at about close to 10'. this one in pic on 1723 doesnt have that great of a curve since i expected some more to show down the line between these 2. nice cool night and casually sprayed every vine and stalk of substantial size and the underside of all larger leaves thouroughly and a lighter wafting across the top of leaves with demand cs for svbs as i have 13 in the traps total so far and lots of new growth sinced last thursday. mixed in daconil as heavy misting will be required this upcoming heatspell. threw in some grandma enggys foliar fulvic and 3-18-18 into the cocktail. females on every plant developing much nicer on mains and every vine tip with none shriveling or aborting in development stage.
