ive seen some seeds on an auction site, and apparently it only take 75 days from seed to harvest, it also says they are very prolific and to treat them like chilli plants. so my question is has anyone grown them, and how did they turn out?

Have a look at this old thread. Appears they did not go down too well!

hmmm thanks DD ive read a couple of the old threads and they have all got mixed review, so i dont know what to do, i just though they looked like a good plant as they grow from seed to plant in 75 days!

I do grow it every year just for green berries pickling and leaves for cooking like spinach. It is really good for health and fantastic tasting leaves.
this one I started couple of years ago.

mind you they are weeds. seriously! their seeds have life of about 20 years and birds cant digest them.
whatever you do, dont let the ripe berry drop on the plot.

I tried these last year and go so confused with them and the deadly nightshade as for some reason i had these on my plot too..best thing i did was dig the lot up and on the compost heap. better than hospital lol.  they did spred everywhere too. so hoping no sign of these this year

They take longer than 75 days here, more like 5 months to being ripe. Not really worth the effort!!
