and here is a nice pic looking up at the 11' sunflower. it has been a lovely morning and i pollinated the 885 #1 plant at 25' for insurance reasons incase Noah blows from growing so fast. i will have one more pollination after that at 28' just in case also. it looks like the 22' set and if so, then it will hang around as a backup and a shock absorber for Noah. The 905 females look to have aborted prior to even opening and am hoping to get one set at least on this plant. The 885 #2 plant looks to have a 6 day old kin still keeping its luster and growing. the 3 lober pollinated 3 days ago seems to be ok for now too. got another try at 25 or 26 feet coming up with another at about 29' curled up in the tip. went Dr. Frankenshazzy on the 1247 plant hoping to either get Homer to pick up its pace or blow up. put 200 mls in 2 separate 2 gallon watering cans of a liquid 0-5-4
general hydroponics bloom formula as a drench around the stump area. this is 10 times the recommended usage. its lumpy textured skin looks like it can handle some pushing, so i will keep records on the success or failures of going high on phosphates and potassium at 18 day old fruiting stage. Homer has grown 3 inches per day and is at 46" this a.m. so i will see if that pace picks up any. i will put the same 10 times strong application every 7 days and see the results. Muuuuuuwwwaaaahaaaahaaaahaaaa!!!!! the evil scientist is back in business. (that smells of trouble already. lol)
