As there have been a few interested in the 380 turner seeds, I would like to let people know that it is being grown in much than less ideal conditions. This is the worst part of the garden because of the light and hill/slope. It is on a double slope 30 degrees top to bottom and 45 degree from one half of it`s side. It`s in between apartment building so the sun does not hit it until 11:00 then is off by 5:00.
When it came time to set the fruit, 2 blossomed at the same time with the good one that I had planed to go with having seeds in the blossom. So due to time of year I was forced to go with the other smaller blossom that was growing under the vine and scared. This forcing me to cut off the main and just recently the nearest side vine. Soil is only 1` deep over boulders. Its grown near the ocean so cold temp conditions. Which means my plant is still only 400`sq. Soil was toxic last year with phosphorous, boron, aluminum, and the ph was high. To correct I simply added a tandem truck load of lawn soil to dilute then added 1/2 a bag of 60-0-0 and 1/2 a bag of 0-0-60 and hoped for the best as no soil test done. Which may be showing in my growth now. As things should start to fly now but are a little slow but that could be just from all the rain and cloud lately.
