We've had a few nice moments the last couple days - sun shine and warmer temps - and the 1126 finally appears to be settling in. In fact, today I found some real evidence of it vining out - a tendril! So exciting! Up to this point, it seemed to be a little sensitive to the heat and flag easily with wilting leaves. After some reading, it sounds like it just takes some time for the roots to get established in the new ground and supply enough water to the rapidly growing leaves.

Today marks a week since the plants went into the ground; so, the 1126 got its first application of fertilizer (25-10-10).
