Also, the Tokyo Blue seemed more spherical. The Buttercup       produced significantly more        fruits per plant so we'll do those in the coming garden season as opposed to       the Tokyo Blues.       >        > i hope it goes well! as usual i'm daydreaming this time of the       > year about what i want to do this coming planting season.       >        > have you ever grown Red Kuri squash?       >        >        > songbird              Not yet but I told my wife about them and she ordered some seeds for this       year.               Paul              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
