It would be nice to feel confident at day 75 but the rain and humidity persists. Here is the back and front side views of the 2230 and 2009 today. Both stems have some minor deterioration issues I have cleaned and put a fan on and will babysit several times a day. The 2230 has absolutely no powdery mildew but the 2009 has A LOT even though both have been aggressively treated the same. The 2009 leaves are huge elephant ears which overlap considerably causing the problem. I will continue to eliminate poor leaves. The 2230 @ 430.5 ott 1618# seems to have finally figured out I cut it's base/stump out over three weeks ago due to rot, but is still growing. The 2009 @ 439.5 ott 1697 seems to keep going well enough. The flower is a "Pumpkin Sunflower" seeds I grew this year :) My little dog Lucky (see him?) figured out how to get in the garden.
