LanTerra Update > All three fruit here at home are now past Day 30 with the best on my own 752* Landry 07 nearing 300" OTT. I am a full ten days ahead of last years pace for my 1134 growth and with luck I can run a couple of these fruit a bit further than last year.
All three plants are getting drenches now with little to no nitrogen component. I picked up a hydroponic chelation product that I have put into the drench mixture along with calcium in hopes that it combined with humic acid will do the job and enhance uptake of the pumpkin wonder nutrient.
If there was ever a chance that fruit could go heavy I think this would be the year due to all my extra efforts. The key goal is to keep the plants growing by delaying senescence and prolonging growth into September.
I am still waiting on root sample tests that were sent to RTI to determine the colonization level in each plant. So far tissue testing has been very favourable for all elements including Calcium.
I however remain very cautious of BES and its dreaded season ending finality.
