LOL @MissS, raincoats eh! might be an idea worth pursuing! I'll gladly take you up on your offer after the season is done
@bschaerger GGWT seems to be a safe bet, got lots of rain as well in Germany? I always imagined you guys had better weather than us!
@zipcode it pains me to hear this about Indian Stripe as I failed, yet again today, to detect any flavor and the texture is not great.
I kept 20 inches between plants but due to travelling overseas a couple of times this summer, some suckers got away and I didn't have the heart to cut them after they thickened. Should've probably cut them anyways, I always think it would shock the plant and throw its growth into limbo for a while, I hope my theory is wrong.
