2016. Mar 28 started 4 seeds inside (all germinated). Apr 10 transplanted to 4" pots, set on kitchen porch windowsill. Transplanted to herb garden mid May. This batch did not grow nearly as robust as last year's (same batch of seed). Perhaps it liked the sharp drainage of the sandbox, or it just got more attention being so front-and-center, or the site got more sun (south and west exposure) or the seeds were one year older. Who knows. Harvested mid-October. 2015. Started 4 seeds inside (all germinated), transplanted to gallon pots in compost, set in sandbox. All female. These grew exceptionally strong and tall with a large harvest mid-October. Gave one plant to Dale midsummer. Seeds from Paul. |
