This is the 1684 Delaney main vine, its the diameter of a quarter, pretty beefy compared to what I remember from last year. No twin leaves or tendrils on the tip so it looks like the double has decided to straighten itself out.
Thanks for the feedback Mike, looks like you were right!
Drenched the entire patch today with soluble kelp, soluble fish, Biogrow Soluble Maxx, and Azos. The cover crop has exploded over the past 24 hours with a full day of sun.
I've also found out why the pump wasn't pushing the irrigation system with as much pressure as expected, I only had one tank feeding the pump, which was not quite enough throughput. Opening both barrels, one with nutrients, and one with straight water, results in great sprinkler coverage. Chalk that up to experience.
Fungicides and insecticides are on there way. This year I need to be sure my plants stay healthy as long as possible. That in itself should really help push the pounds beyond last year.
