The first female is emerging out of the 1684's tip. It should be positioned at around 11 to 12 feet by the time it grows out. I already culled one female off a secondary, cross section showed it was a 5 lobe, so that's encouraging, hopefully its a sign of whats to come.

Growth has slowed with recent cool weather, down to around 4 to 6 inches per day. Plant is looking good overall at around 10 ft in length. Leaves are in good shape except where I burn them a couple of weeks ago.

Started burying vines with a mixture of Mykos, Soluble Seaweed, Soluble Humic, and Azos mixed, then watered in with Soluble Maxx. Forgot the rootshield plus, next time I bury I'll be sure to remember.
