Wow, thats fantastic growth! I would be okay with that much growth for an entire summer and its not even summer yet and it's already grown that much! Pretty impressive!
Thanks for sharing!

I almost want to go on and on about how rewarding they are
to grow because of their speed of growth and mass but
I will wait until after they are covered this fall(-;

Thanks Alex

Every year is more fun then the last(-:

They look awesome Jim. How tall are they? Can't wait for mine to start growing.

Thanks Ryan

I think around 5' tall,they are wider than they are tall...
for now..

Incredible growth for so early in the year. I assume u heat? Should be huge by the end of summer.

Thermocube in winter keeps it between 35/45F minimum.

How often do you water them? What type of soil?

I mixed in a little sand on the top before I planted them,other
than that they are in the native soil here.

I didn't water much last year but looking at the soil moisture
a foot down(there isn't any)I have decided to water more
so,anytime temps are 80+ I have been watering and fertilizing....
already more than last year!
