Cornerstone Update > I am having an ok start. I may have lost the 1502 Wallace due to heat issue in the hoop house. I hope it may come back. I have already put in a backup of my 752* Landry - 848* x 1429 LaRue 07. It was the only good plant I had left in the basement. It sure was pot bound with several roots twirled around the bottom of the pot.

The 1446 Werner and 1385 Jutras are getting larger. I can't believe their size after only a week in the ground. I used fresh quad mix and compost right from the Conveyor belt. Man was it hot stuff. Teaming with microbes and C02. I think the C02 coming from this stuff is what is driving the plants to grow so quickly.

The 898 and the 1134 are doing OK after wilting a bit in the heat last week. The Weatherman called for 68*f but by the time I got to the yard it was nearly over 80*f. Roy had opened the hoop houses but the damage was done.
