Just a few pics of the Nerd Farm.

"Father Tom" a disease resistant type has been keeping up with the amount of BBQ burgers I make at this time of year.

7 - pots with a little storm damage. They seems to be growing very prostrate but not about to change that while they're producing such nice big pods. Will cut them back at end of season & hope for a more traditional plant next season.

And no Nerd tour is complete without Mr. Douglah. Healthier than ever. Under those leaves theres around 50 flowers...so far they all drop.

Oh, if Bunnings have some, I'll just head down there when I get back from this hellhole they call Adelaide and see if my local one has some before I trouble you for some seeds ;)

you can hope for a more traditional plant next season - good luck - it's the damn hippy vibe you put into your plants, they're all laid back and relaxed :P

you may like to know that my/your birdhab now has about 40 pods on it and is going like an absolute champion - still prostrate though (grumble, grumble, damn hippy vibe, grumble...)

They turned ugly & moldy with all the rain we had few weeks ago...then the bugs came.

Will start again when I get back from holidays.

I wonder if that is because of the straw? I would think it would never get close to dry, except maybe the top.

It was just a strange weather pattern we had - very tropical...I dont think young spuds like tropical weather...but fungus does.

hell no! I planted it into a nice 30cm terracotta pot about 2 weeks after I got it from you. I'll post a pic as soon as I can find out where the hot chilliwoman has left the camera.
