Growth pace picking up - 945 Bailey Girl fruit now on D13 gaining 4.5/day.
Main Vine is out well past 35' before July 1st is simply amazing on a non heated plant..
Strong display of apical dominance and some Hybrid vigor that green mixed with orange can do in the first generation.
Brown Sugar - 2036 Bryson x 945* just approaching Day 10 has only one side vine terminated so far.
