Is the name of the 4th chapter of my memoir.
PS
Hey, the friend who bought a place in the Santa Cruz hills that was formerly a grow site (shared photos on some other thread), gave me a cutting to take back to SF that one of his neighbors gave him. He said that the neighbor said the previous owner gave him some seeds about 10 yrs ago and this cutting is from that line of seeds. No idea if this means improvement or degradation as the line continues.
Anyway, I like to grow things, thought it would be a fine experiment to see how well the cutting holds up in foggy SF next to the tomatoes and basil and more or less treated the same. (Was a cool summer, consequently had modest tomato harvest and decent for basil if you ignore some the insect predation. And yes, legal to grow in backyards in SF.)
Its about 10 inches tall now, and flowering along the length of the cutting and looks like there is a seed already forming on one of the flowers midway up.
Here is the top. Lower down, there is a bit of purple coloring on some of the flowers.
Knowing nothing about growing or harvesting, I think it still has some time to go. What say you, erBB?
