1216.5 DeBacco ’11 (F: 1325 Hopkins x M: 1725 Harp)
Seed was placed in the propagation chamber on April 11th and it was planted in the cold frame on April 19th
I think I always grade my seeds the hardest but honestly this is probably the second best looking plant in the patch. It is hard to select one of my own seeds to grow but I think I made a good choice as I was happy with the progress of the plant last year so I wanted to give it a try again. I just wish it had virus resistance.
As you can see the area around the plant has a lot of weeds and this was done on purpose. The weeds were allowed to grow (even though they will be pulled out later) so the roots and exudates they produce can help increase the soil biology around the initial plant site.
