I would be interested in your Chinese mustard and your two basils. I have all you listed, including bulk lettuce mix. LMK, -Tom Here is a link that might be useful: My Personal Seed Trade Pages

Interesting! I hadn't thought about a major deficiency until you mentioned it. So I contacted a local agricultural lab and they suspect the vine has a serious Mg and Mn deficiency. They've advised me to treat with Mg-sulfate and Mn-sulfate. Thanks for the reply.

I have a Heartland stove 9200 that is about 26 yrs old. Bought it for the look. No problems for 19 yrs. Then the burner knobs started getting difficult to turn. Paid for appliance repair to come out but they were unable to repair. Situation worsened, called Aga Marvel and bought some repair parts. They never supported my efforts. Called Thompson Appliance in Tacoma, Wa. My experience with them leads me to to say never call them. The stove new was almost $5,00. delivered and installed. Thompson came out said I needed to have it taken into the shop, polished up and rehauled. They reportedly went to a recent seminar on the stove at Aga Marvel. I paid 2,500 with the parts and after a few months, same problem. They are a dishonorable team of father and son (son being the worst). I lived with one working burner for about 2 yrs. until I found an excellent repair person on Vashon Is, Wa. Issue with these burners: careful to not get water spilled down into the burners. Rust develops. I believe that was the only problem. Heartland was bought out by Aga Marvel and now have some stove parts but phasing out. Good luck.

Socks, definitely do cut the top with enough stem to root in a separate pot. My comment was about the stem that's left after you cut the top away. If it's not too difficult, you could tease it out with some roots and put it in it's own pot. You don't have to stand it up, just plant and leave it horizontal like it is right now. It will produce multiple rosettes along the stem. On the other hand, it won't hurt anything to just leave it alone, it'll still offset several plants. You could then cut those away and pot on their own or just leave them if they're not encroaching too much on the other plant. I'd be glad to do the job for you if I was close enough, it's definitely fun 'work' that I enjoy doing. Russ
