Way to go Paul ... gives us all something to aim for and as PaulG said 6-8 months .... are you culling the rest and fattening up the biggest pod or letting nature take its course
Thanks guys. I'm not really paying any special attention to the MOA S/B plant, I take good care of all my plants ("to the best of my gardening ability" 
) regardless. I'll leave all the pods be, and just hope for the best. Thanks again for the seeds John.
I do have quite a head start on you northerners, but my season will most likely be over when you are all pushing out huge pods.
Good luck to all........SR.

I hope so, I've had my season delayed which cost me close to four weeks. I'll take any extra days of summer that I can get.Hotrod64 said:The experts are saying we will be getting summer conditions through most of Autumn, so with a bit of luck we should be pushing out pods for some time yet

Yeah, Paul, Tristen said the same thing in NZ - has thisShorerider said:
been a general trend throughout the region? Hope you
get some real summer before your Fall sets in. You are
right, that by the time we are getting pods it will be the
depths of winter in your neighborhood.

Oh, almost forgot... 46 days since hooks emerged,
just over 8 weeks since seeds hit the dirt. John's
MoA plants continue to show great form - a little
yellowing here and there, but I have just started
fertilizing again after stopping right after transplant:
Blue beverage cup, about .5l, for size comparison.

My initial problems this season were soil related, the second season in a row for me. I put in new beds the year before last and the bulk soil I used was terrible to say the least. It was more top soil than anything else, and once it dried out became hydrophobic. I've spent a fortune on amendments and this season should still produce a bumper crop.
This summer has also been fairly mild in temperature from what we usually see which has most likely delayed things further.
I'll still have more pods than I'll know what to do with at seasons close, so I can't complain.

Nice! I should have just bought some plants from you instead of seeds. LOL! As compulsive as I am, I still may. Looking good.juanitos said:i got a few growing
