I took JJ61 up on his offer for some verifyably fertile KB seeds. I planted only three as soon as they arrived and none came up. All conditions, including the moonsign were favorable but still no KB. I won't be trying anymore this year. I'm looking forward to planting the JJ61 seeds and the 2 leftover Pinetree KB seeds next year to see if it's just a bad year for them here. Very strange.
All of the others I planted are growing well including the now three volunteers. An Aunt Ruby's German Green wilted almost to death about an hour after I weeded around it one morning two weeks ago. I gave it extra care and it came back to life. I think a grub munched on its roots.
Of the 8 plants I gave away, two are next door where I can see them flourishing through the dining room window. Not sure if Altheo's Mom planted the six I gave her yet. She hadn't as of last weekend, but I guess they are still alive.
