1420.5 settled down nicely over the weekend and is putting on several inches per day on the main vine now. Secondaries are popping out as well.

With the micro-climate inside the hoophouse, the aphids have already arrived so today I treated with systemic orthenex and will follow up every month or as needed.

Will give a couple of gallons of a weak fish/kelp cocktail tonight. I've not been watering inside the hoophouse very often to encourage the roots to go deep and spread out...seems to have worked out well so far.
