LanTerra Blog > Day 30...the fear strikes me each time I walk up to the patch and lift the sheet. "SPLIT or NO SPLIT". Howie Mandel could not say it any firmer. The deal is that BES time is creeping around the corner. Just a rainfall and a sunny high evapotranspirational day away.
I hate this time of the season. The numbers run through my head like a kaleidoscope of horrors. CC, EE, SS.. They all add up to speculation and dreams of what could have been. For years at home here I lost every monster fruit on the vines. Left annually with only the meager-est of progeny is consolation for what should have been. Heartache and sweat are all that usually remains after that first glimpse of the fruits smiling rear end.
Banished to the outer limits of growers being know as the blow up King is really not a good thing. Determined this year to solidify any and all sinks with the thickest of all possible walls no stone has been unturned. Several new tricks are being implemented across the province in hopes of returning the trophy home.
Guarded optimism rules the day. I head out to the patch muttering NO SPLIT, NO SPLIT, NO SPLIT...Now thats the DEAL I want......
