As you can see from this pic, the 817Schieder is about finished. The wind flipped it 180 and cracked the stem. I covered most of the stem with dirt in hopes it roots, but, well, it’s a goner. Same with the Vincent-McGill which is the small green spot near the right edge of pic – it’s positively history. The two remaining were also affected by wind and now growing the opposite direction (that is same direction of first leaf). I’m not going to try to fix them, rather just swap the way I planned them to go. Having two is probably is for the best as I can now grow some secondaries and maybe bigger AGs. But it does take away from how one can grow in small spaces (i.e., only half the plants intended). This is still a very small plot at 45 sq ft per plant.

PS, for thoes that wanted me to update -- this is it for awhile at least untill I trench and weed (embarassing as it is).
