Grows all over the place here in Latvia. They grow it for seeds to put in their butter i_am_hungry


 

that sounds interesting i_am_hungry i will try to make my own oil as i have been given kg,s of seeds for a friend who has gave up fishing due to health reasons. i lust like the plant its free and looks nice and contains no THC ( UV light treatedso no ) good but is one of the most versatile plants around so many uses.

did try to find a wine recpie but only for leaves and not the seeds.

Not quite what I imagined Mutley but the plants look well. How are you giving them enough light?

I tried growing houseplants in mine with the lid on and the lamp on and all but they didn't do very well. I had a grandiose design in my head for a tropical pool with a waterfall and exotic plants growing out of the top. That never happened.

As of last night its become home for two half starved baby hedgehogs. Probably a more worthwhile use for it anyway.

Never assume anything – except an occasional air of intelligence.
