Also a very nice plant behind it.   Tuesday, June 25 View Page 839 Sandercock plant on the right. Left plant is the 1965.5 Rodebaugh. Patch treated the same when amended. The Rodebaugh looks to be a little pale. I gave it some N a few days ago. It has a day 8 fruit on it with a beautiful shape. It is also going to be a nice sized day 10 in 2 days. This plant has a lot of double roots out the bottom if nodes.   Friday, July 5 View Page Day 20 for the 839 Sandercock.
