Vine has reached the limits of the fence and almost all secondaries terminated on the 1501. The vine is in the best health I’ve ever had – by far. Limiting watering and fancy fertilizers – just nodal mix (see above) and weekly foliar Jack’s 20-20-20. 3rd application Heritage today and switched to Jacks 10-30-20 foliar spray today - The 1613 still has a little room to grow, and because I lost the main vine growing tip, allowing about 6 secondaries to proceed forward – all have small female flowers. Both vines have a growing fruit, DAP 1501-14 and the 1613-13 – both were 30” circ 4 days ago, 33” 3 days ago” 36” 2 days ago, 40” yesterday and 46” today! That 2” rain dump we had a few days ago is paying off.
