Well, not everything is rosy in Domeville. The 992 Glasier plant quickly developed a bad case of stump rot. Strange, given the extrememly dry weather, although it is in virtually the same spot as the 522 Ceja was last summer that had the same problem. This must've come from the soil, I don't think there's any other explanation. I have removed the stump and essentially split this plant up into three plants - the original main vine, and the two biggest side vines are all now seperated from one another and hanging on for dear life in this heat. I really just want some more pollen from this plant tomorrow, after that whatever will be will be. I will continue trying to save it, even if just for knowledge's sake.
