I looked them up and I see there is a bush variety and a larger variety. There may be more. I was also thinking that if you saved seed to plant the next year maybe it was a hybrid or the soil may not have had the same fertilizer as the previous year.

I purchased two types of seed online. I’d like to try this variety. It sounds good and good for storage.

Not sure if this will help but I moved to NC from NYS and had allergies from the massive pollen here. It felt more like asthma or bronchitis to me. I was visiting with my daughter in NY and they had a Levoit air purifier and it got rid of the cough completely. My kids have since bought me two of them and I have been great so far. I also upped my vitamin D3 from 5000 iu to 10000 iu for short term and feel a difference in my energy level and alertness. I need to get my D3 levels checked by the doctor to make sure I have the proper levels before continuing a higher dose.

Very interesting video. I have been using wood chips for a year so far and see a major improvement in my trees and bushes. I am sure there is only improvement ahead as my garden matures. Thank you for this information.

Yes that is what I was thinking. Last year I harvested at about 120 days or earlier and had small potatoes so I tested them then waited another 20 days before harvesting.
