A few things have been done in the patch so I figured an update was called for. I have changed the direction of both vines. A ditch has been cut ahead of the advancing main vine of the 2043 Clementz 6" deep x 8" wide and filled it back in with rich compost. This will aid in rooting as the plant advances. You can see in the first 5-18-18 photo posted the placement of the loosely wrapped pink plumbers tape on the stem split. There was a little sulfur powder applied as well. About a foot down vine from the tape you will see soil covering (time for some more roots). This plant is way outside of the original irrigation ditch and is advancing 6-8" a day. The two sticks stuck into the ground far bottom right of last photo show 24hrs of growth. It will be out of the greenhouse by Tuesday at this rate. I will think on what to do with the Holland 1790 plant. I would like to have it as my pollinator but some noobie planted them on top each other.
