Most of my plants are really small
Sometimes old fshioned green beans has been all I could grow ,, good thing their a favorite ,,
Nitrogen and mneral oxides in run off will cause that color bloom change ,, Clay is full of mineral oxides of every kind ,,
Not from trade but my biggest crop so far , Milkweeds
