I was going to continue on a thread I started but decided to start a new thread.
How good does this bunch look.

Looks like a really nice Orinoco bunch. Pretty good yield for that variety too.

Sorry about the gar picture. I went out bowfishing and brought me home some lunch. Caliboy nice to hear that it's a good bunch. I guess I am on the right track on keeping my plants healthy. I just lay down lots of mulch and compost and fertilize every month with some cheap 15-15-15. I'll keep that routine up.

He measured 4-8 and another one I caught the same day was 5-5. So it was a good day for me. Had a great lunch and will have a fish fry this weekend so I can fish some more!! My freezer is to the max right now.

One that doesn't die, and lives long enough to bear fruit?

My question was more along the lines of getting the biggest bunch sizes.
The right growing zone, type/amount of fertilizer (without going overboard), good quality of soil, sufficient amount of water, lack of pests, etc. I think most types will grow healthy and well if it is not too cold, and with only a few of the factors I listed. Gabe (gabe15) is probably our best source of info.
