8 swedes.
« on: March 26, 2007, 21:23:36 »
Hello :)

I have been clearing my new plot, and have been pulling up loads of swedes. They are about as thick as a thin ladies wrist ??? above and below ground, but at ground level, they get really thin.So  they look like green haired 8s!

Is that normal, or is it evidence of any problems in the soil?

Thanks

cj :)

AAHHH! The Green Haired 8's

They had some fantastic singles back in the 70's.
