At this stage after a month since transplanting, the plants are concentrating on making the leaves grow bigger. The stems has increased rigidity and are able to withstand winds.  Growth at this stage is not really about adding more leaves, but enlarging what already there. My attempts a year or two ago seemed to fare better for those grown on bed. This time they became food for the colony of green grasshoppers.  Those in containers survive well to harvest. 


Watering still twice daily, fertilizing once a week.
