The Agro-K products arrived today! Put them to use, firstly a Symbex soil drench around the plants. Mixed it with Companion. Both boost the microbes in the soil. Then gave a foliar spray of Vigor Cal. Plants are looking great.
The 1260.4 Weir has gone double, but appears to have gone back to single. The vine has laid out awkwardly, its a thick plant, some really nice solid looking leaves on it around the 20" mark.

The 1097.5 Beachy is having a hard time with hot sun. Burnt the tender new leaves a few days back when temps hit 90F. The vine is about a foot long, looking a lot like an 845! But all in all its looking very good.
Have rigged up a temporary misting system, have a lot of irrigation work to do. Need to fully cover patch with misting for the heat, which will double as the dosatron applicator of foliar's. Also need to install the doastron. Will use pressure sprayer while the plants are small for foliar.
The 753 Lloyd is a monster plant, thick vine about about 3 foot already, huge leaves, about 22" wide. Going to direct a few secondarys in other direction's to give it 400sqft of leaf area. Have a good feeling about this plant, need more room!
