Its been cold (40-44 at night) and constantly gusting since sunday. The plants are holding up well but the wind fencing is taking a beating. Vine growth slowed to a crawl after being up to 8-10 in per day in last weeks heat.

New drip line is in and works very well. I had been using the old stuff since 2011 and most of the emitters were plugged up so I was sticking barbed emitters all over. Gave them a drink of neptunes kelp/fish mix, humic/fulvic, seaweed, micrel and companion. Dosed with agrifos and merit last week.

1162 female should open at about 14' and this may be the keeper. The 864 at 9 feet may be the keeper as this plant will run out of room quickly and I don't see any other females in the main tip.
