               first seedling came up on April 1; and is now almost 3' long with the largest leaf about 13" across, total number of true leaves so far 18 . It is showing small male flower buds (1/4"), and the first lateral vines are several inches long. Much more vigorous than other seedlings except for  a 103 MacKinnon and a 99 Lyons, which are almost as large. Is this good for 22 days old?

               Having never grown a Field Pkn, I am no expert...but it sounds like a Slunger!!! 13" leaf sound too good to be true!! My advice would be to keep it up!!! Peace, Wayne
