Bill:
Thanks for the continued advice and guidance.
I thought I would have a few years before disease would "build up" in my soil. It was so disheartening to see huge, rugged plants with plenty of fruit set wilt overnight! I still have plenty of potential problems but grafting has reduced the heartbreaking two-day-kill-off.
It's very relaxing to graft since it still takes my total attention but even if they all fail I still have Big Beef. It amazed me how long the 24 took to graft yesterday.
Happy growing year to you!
Jeff
