26 DAP on the 1501 – OTT wt est 110 lbs – never had one this big this early. Definitely orange! 2 other nice ones a week or so behind. Vine looking good, all secondaries have reached limits of fence and so cutting them off at growing tips. The 2043 is FINALLY producing female flowers – pollinated 3 over last week with “self” and one with the 1501. Somewhat concerned with the vine – Main growing end turned yellow and leaves wilting – afraid of “Yellow Vine” – saw several of the carrier beetles today on vine as well – Cut off main vine back about 3 ft. Huge secondaries growing about 10-12”/day. Sprayed with Eight, Earthworks Potent Sea and Earthworks Protein plus. Plan to Spray with Merit tomorrow and fungicide. Cal-Vantage waiting in the wings. Still adding a tablespoon mixture of Mycorhizae, Kelp meal, 10-10-10, gypsum, dry Jacks 20-20-20 and scoop of dry sterile mushroom soil at each buried node.
