Looking real good Matt! Some of the lads around the forum have been telling me that GN dont have red pstems, DC do, and GN have green stems....I guess we'll see when my "GN" flowers next year hopefully.

Looking good man. Last year I barely watered my washy, this year I water it like 3x every 2 weeks. Yours seems to be in a good sized pot, so I would probably say once every other week maybe. Just make sure you let it dry out well b4 watering again, you should be ok. Can't wait for winter to end...

Good to see you're still around Matt! Are you having any issues with squirrels this year?! They are destroying everything I have. I've never had a problem before but this year they're out of control. Hopefully the Toronto squirrel epidemic didn't spread all the way to you. Nice nanners!

hey Brady. thanks! how are yours? I remember they were getting nice and big! Yes we sure do have a major squirrel problem. Here I'm thinking it's just us because we would feed them peanuts. glad to know it's regional hahah. I'm interested to see pics if you have anytime soon?
