Just before leaving for Ohio I set up a different hydroponic system than I had previously used. Plants are cuttings from two plants grown in the earlier setup this year. Decided to grow them out of the weather in a small greenhouse at a level where I don't have to bend over. "Lazy" I can tie supports to the top of the greenhouse. It's a bit warm but the plants don't seem to mind. Actually they look better than their mothers at the same size. I've pinched out the earliest trusses as soon as I can detect them in hopes the next ones will be on stronger plants and produce some larger mega blooms. Time will tell. One of the 2 remaining AG's appears to be coming down with YVD. Will know in another day or two. I did try surgery again and removed a large portion of plant in hopes I got ahead of the disease. It's never worked before but I've got to try. I really want seeds from the cross. I will probably start a daily spray of antibiotics early in the morning with hopes the plant will absorb it and by some miracle it helps.
