photo two. I think we are right about where we were last year at this time. we get frost right up to may 1 ish so put started our plants indoors then raised them in pots in a protected area this year until last Monday. They are all looking healthy. We dug out holes this year again and then lined with small gauge chicken wire to keep rodents out and are trapping all gophers in vicintity like crazy hahaha. the holes plants are in with high end soil from Hydroponics store mixed with coco this year. Since they have so many tap roots it is impossible to raise completely hydroponically i think but main root area is hydroponically grown - or that is the theory hahaha. This year we're giving them a real cocktail of fertilizers and suppliments and organic hormones. We'll see what these babies can do hahaha. Steve
