first female has shown on the 1247 and will fall about 12 ft-13 ft by the time it unstretches from main tip. its yella and made me smile big for the first time in awhile.
all plants look great and i am most likely going to grow my own 885 over the 846 jutras. yes unproven, and probably will not have the chance at the deep orange color of the
846. but thats the way it goes in the culling process. i still have availability for the color gene from Timmer's 604 jutras he went with along with the 1225. baring tragedy to any of my small plants in the next 2 days, the official line up in my patch is the 1247 handy, the 735 pukos, the 905 ailts, and the 885 shenoha. Timmer took the snip to his backups and his plants are the 1446 eaton with a female at 8' already for his early plant and the 604 and 1225 jutras. from the seven plants we will have some nice crosses. also without me knowing, Timmer took the severly wilted wet noodle of the 842 and put it behind my garage 6 days ago. it is still alive with less than a pencil size bent stem at 25 days since sprouting, but he did somehow keep it alive. it is now his baby, and he is hoping to at least get some flowers off of it for pollinating. i am still unsure if the pollen will be pure strong 842 genes if it makes it. i will take a picture of it along with the others this weekend.
all of our other late plants that sprouted may 1st have about one foot vines that all are getting ready to lay down nicely tomorrow or friday.
