that’s a hilarious health warning label! :laughing:

get’s me thinking about the old brain-on-drugs advertisement & something we had as kids called “D.A.R.E” like CAMP but for kids.

i think i saw a new & updated version of the frying-egg/brain-on-drugs thing recently, too… heh.

CA had a TV ad immediately following recreational-weed but they pulled it after a week because it was vague & implied getting high was “normal”.

‘pssst! hey kids! IT IIIIIISSSSSS! go check your parents’ stash!’

These are the fastest variety of peanuts, ‘Valencia’. 90 days compared to 120 days for Virginia peanuts. So hopefully I’ll have time.

Do you have a few rows or garden full or just wats in the picture?

I have a few 10 gallon pots.

Soil temps below 65F will slow germination. The warmer the soil temp the better. Dem goober peas like hot weather.
