Well, here is a picture of my 1446 Eaton at 14 days old. So far it is looking pretty healthy and vigorous. I have included a tape measure to get an idea of the dimensions of the plant. I couldn't get the picture centered because I was taking it from the back so as not to step on the soil. The cots are quite nice and large, and the first true leaf is out and growing--seems to be leaning quite far back, I am not sure why--maybe I have too much heat in the greenhouse. At any rate the second true leaf looks to be on its way. I can't believe how far it has come since the May 3rd picture (above) when I planted it (four days). I am giving it about a half gallon of nutrient water every day, and a half gallon of rain water. Hopefully we get some sun and real heat next week.
