PNW_D, glad you liked it and thanks for those seeds.
MsCowpea, I had about 60 plants going but some were poor producers and some produced none. 10-15 plants were dwarf plants and plants in containers. That was, by far, the largest harvest last year. I picked them all early in the morning because it was supposed to approach 100° that day. Laid them out for a photo and half were in the sun, half in the shade. I couldn’t get a good shot that way so had to wait ‘til the sun got a little higher for the photo. Almost cooked the lot right there on the patio.
I was trying to get down to about 30 this year but it’s inched up to about 50 now. Doooh! I still have 15 quarts of sauce to wade through.

Was it you who had the monster sunflower on your members page at Gweb?

Hey Bully, that was Cyclops hybrid from Burpee. I grew those a few years ago. It’s easy to impress when your wife is only 2 ½ feet tall.
But, I can’t do that foolishness again. I can get at least 4 tomato plants in where those grew.
