Got a happy little surprise this morning. Went to turn the lights on for the plants, and of course looked the plants over. It occurred to me that I didn't see my lone rocoto - it's been a slow-grower, so has been pretty small, plus the texture of the leaves is a bit different from the others. Looked around again, and couldn't help but to say out loud "WOW!" The little bugger apparently had a growth spurt between when I last looked at it yesterday and now. WOW. Or as Sum says: BOOM!
If you look at the middle picture in the post just above, it's the one in the lower-left corner. It hadn't really grown any larger than that when I looked at it yesterday. Today? The leaves are large enough that they are touching the rim of the cup, and there is a new leaf pair starting.
