I havent ever so it is not really fair to say, but I would be a little unsure about munchin on those flowers. I am not disagreeing that they are edible - just seems a little weird. Kind of like the first thought of escargo.
For .20 - Plant them, what do you have to lose? Non heading means it will be loose leaf just like Black Simpson Lettuce (just wont make a head but will grow individually)
I feed nothing but Diamond - Lamb and Rice and Chicken and Rice.
Yes they has some issues a couple years ago but that was not with the corn and soy free ones that I feed. I had a stud dog that was allergic to soy was how i got started on it and have been with it ever since.
HiDelight, is that...
I got a 15lb rooster that for some reason tolerate adults but hate kids. Wanna borrow him? He will change their minds REALLY quick kind of like rock salt did when I was a kid.

If you are a member of BYC there is a good post there on how to do it and what type to use. There are some good process pictures in it as well.

This is awesome! I have been looking into this. I can remember going to a syrup festival as a kid with my grandparents and wanted to show mine how it works (since we don't live there anymore). Time to start hunting trees.:weee
That is pretty low but I dont think it would kill it, just slow it a little. The getting to 70 during the day will help turn that around though. I planted some in my indoor grow light greenhouse just to see if it will work.
I still eat it when it is that way. I dont think it changes the flavor at all. If you just give it a quick blanch and then serve so the flowers are still visible I think it even looks better. IMO Enjoy!
Rosalind, I dont suppose you would be willing to post how you make all that extra syrup? Starting with the tree tapping? You see I have the horrific desease that when I see or hear something my brain all the sudden says "You can make that, why buy it?" It is a sickness and my DW only aids to...
I was always told to keep them within a couple inches of the light (if you are using one). Might be difficult if you are using sun. I always run a fan in my hot room and greenhouse. enough that feels like there is obvious air movement when you walk in.
I like the fence idea ... makes more room. I do mine in a hay feeder for cattle. Start with about a foot and a half of straw and wet it REALLY well. Add the seed cuttings and then add another foot and wet it too. Then as the others said just keep adding as they grow. Make sure you keep it...
Looks like a good one. I want to go a little in the herb direction this year. I have found there are some that we like the taste of and they are so darn expensive.
