Sucker MC's should call me Sire

Today: a cool weather Saturday.  Things are looking good in the community garden.  I removed suckers from all the plants and put up more twine so at least one level is up for all plants.  Except an F2 that is all on its lonesome.    I counted all surviving F2s:  N=57, and noted positions.  Finally I did a bit of weeding and removed a couple more potato beetles, larva and eggs.  Not very many.  F2 #55 still has the purply fruit, growing nicely.   However the purplish color is not as evident now after some more growth, and I'm no longer confident it will be strongly purple. Dark green shoulders.
 Many flowers on the first row of F2s and on some heirlooms.   In my backyard, the plants are really booming - ahead of the community garden - and almost needing a 3rd level of twine!
