Dead or still edible?
« on: January 02, 2009, 18:33:48 »
I dug up an Apache plant from a growbag and it has been in my kitchen covered in lots of small red fruit for a couple of months now. The fruit is now shrivelling up and I'm wondering whether this means they are dying (the plant has been rather neglected and allowed to dry out a lot as the room is so hot) or could they still be used?
