Heritage, I haven't tried it unless I got one with some of the volunteers I let grow sometimes.
Just came in from inspecting the two beds with the older plants and now only have a few that aren't infected. The temps reached 97 in the shade yesterday and the sicker plants took a beating. The forecast is for more of the same and hotter for the foreseeable future with no rain forecast. I pulled my Mrs. Benson yesterday and have 3 or 4 more that will be pulled in the next couple of days. The Grubs Mystery Green which seemed to be hanging in there just totally wilted today; but at least it has some ripening fruit on it. Last year I could not get one to the fruit stage so I feel fortunate because I really like the taste and will get at least a few good ones.
