Here is my best fruit at the beginning of day 12 with a circ. of about 29.5--still averaging 2 inches in circ. a day--I think this is pretty fast growth--certainly the fastest I have seen.

I have done some reading on calcium nitrate towel applications. Any advice on making calcium towels appreciated. I have some water soluble calcium nitrate 15.5 .0 .0. How much should I put in a gallon for a calcium towel? How useful/dangerous is this?

Haven't used any fertilizer in a couple of weeks--this plant is almost exclusively compost fed, except for some 1 gallon applications of miracle grow earlier on in the season around the stump.
