Neither am I. I'm glad to have so many at present though. I'm planting some each day. It's become quite a mission to buy groceries during the Covid shutdown, so I am sowing thickly, and some will be eaten at the mesclun / baby leaf stage. Anything that stretches the number of days between grocery purchases is a plus.Good morning folks
