Haven't decided on the 150 contest yet. I'm only going to soak the seeds about 5 hours. I'll be starting seeds in 1 gal split pots, in promix myco. I may forgo the heating pad since the grow light generates enough warmth for germination. Seeds with backups are the 2021 Hoornstra and the 2465 Dawson. This year I will be drenching the planting hole with Azoxystrobin fungicide a week prior to planting. This was recommended to my by Western Laboratories based on a resent soil disease test that indicate "high" levels of fusarium, i.e. 1000 cfu. According to the lab, not high enough to jump ship, but high enough to take a wack at it.   Thursday, April 24 View Page Oops! My two Hoornstra plants are not both 2021's as stated in the previous entry. One is the 2265.5 So, which one to pick - don't know. One is a Gieger x Wolf and the other is the same cross but Wolf x Gieger. So mother line or father line - hmmm!
