Ditto that about nuclear summer. Michigan Bulb still has not shipped the potatoes that I ordered Feb. 1st. I filled out their survey gave them a very poor rating and also written comments about their unacceptable service.

April 1-15 is the date for planting potatoes in Missouri. Today we got part of the order delivered, but still no potatoes. If they don’t come in the next few days, I am going to just get some walmart product maybe.

I cut off the tops of my indoor pepper plants, and they are now blooming again, I may transplant them out doors and just see how long I can keep them going.

I have a basil plant that I planted in a little 5 inch pot in 2010, I have harvested more basil than I could ever use, and given some away. I just keep cutting it back and it just keeps on growing. At some point you would think it would get root bound and die or something. It will be interesting to see just how long it can go.LOL

I grow lots of basil because I use lots of basil. When the season hits and tomatoes are in, jars and jars and jars of red sauce get canned. I also use it fresh with fresh tomatoes, onions, and feta cheese for a tomato salad. And then I'll dry a bunch for winter/early spring use. I also put a bunch back as pesto. I can't have too much basil.

Or cilantro, for that matter.
