not that i know much about it but all i did was repot as appropriate, it has to end up in a large pot cos the leaves bend down and root themselves in the soil and form a peanut under the soil (if that makes sense) ;D
hope that helps if not i know for sure there is more about it in the herb and vegetable expert i have a copy if you dont and can look it up for you

thanks, deb, I'm sure I've got that one, I'll have a look see  ;D
I'm hoping to plant it in the poly later on, maybe may  :)

Hi - I'm going to try peanuts too (not planted any yet though) & found this a couple of weeks ago - may be of some use.

thanks, teej, just read that before,
I'm going to keep it warm for a while, transplant it into a bigger pot and then plant it in the poly border , it's a novelty for my grandson  ;D
