One last post for today. Clockwise, the overwintered 9.5/8.68 clones have made a big healthy plant. These two males will be kept in refrigeration for 24 hours to align them with the female on the 1448 Bongers. Not sure if this will work. There's one male on the plant that should be aligned. She's gonna bloom May 26th, in 36 hrs I think... last pic is a blossom (off the overwintered clones) that is kinda runty at first glance but I dissected it and it wasnt all that bad. I'm curious how big a tomato it could have grown. Well, won't know now!

Final thought: I think compost tea will make more sense than any brewed tea. Always trying new things, and my compost making and tea making will be a new method. There's so many little variables, a person could earn multiple PhD's just figuring out all the little quirks of it. All I know is that one of my apple trees is happier than ever. Everything else is over my head.
