Arrrrgggg wilt / but nice F3 development


Welp.  Backyard update: Some plants are > 7' tall now... requiring the 8 foot stakes.   Notably, these are Sun Gold, and BC.  Vigorous. But... HC prob has the wilt like last year.  In addition to increased yellowing of lower branches, both plants have stalled growing at 5', and one has some noticeable wilt at very top branches despite plenty of rain recently.   Since this happened last year too, it makes me infer that HC may be inherently pretty susceptible to this type of wilt.    On the bright side, BC looks great, FL is OK, and Sun Gold is great and now turning.  I tried a couple and they were good.

At the farm, some F3s are really looking good.  This one is from spot 5-8 which is a 55A.  These should all be gf/gf.   Purple+beefsteak+gf = goal!   Hope it tastes good.
