Planted the big ones. Nothing on       Wednesday. But Friday, a bunch of 1" to 4" sprouts.       They seems to like the heat so far. I figure if they       die, I just buy some more. I do hope TJ's still have       them in the fall and has not switched back to the       bland American ones. All the varieties I have planted       do not like the heat.              I wonder if since these came from Argentina, if they       have summer and winter backwards. Hmmmmmm...              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
