« on: March 05, 2013, 22:12 »
Hi, can anyone share varieties that produce a large head and are vigorous?

Also what soil do you grow them on?

Thanks HP

I've been impressed with Olympa F1 (try Johnsons Seeds/Wilkos)

Wear a crash helmet?  ::)

Sorry, couldn't help myself (at least I waited until the OP had an answer and the thread moved off the first page of the board!)  :blush:
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
