I was born in Florida and now live in Missouri. I am so happy now to actually go through the seasons. In Florida there is only 2, Summer and Fall :D I guess Missouri is perfect for me, warm Summers, and Winters just pleasingly cold

Nope, no pictures yet. I haven't wanted to spend a bunch of time with them so when it comes time to do the "deed" it won't be as difficult. I do have a question though. The litter in conversation here was and accident... oops. Yeah well I bought four "does" from a local NZW meat breeder. Well...

Miss M... if you too live in Louisiana I wouldn't bother with growing it... just go start ripping in down :D<br /><br />__________ Wed Jun 06, 2012 10:23 am __________<br /><br />I have been toying with the idea of growing it on string trellises, with the base in buckets, so when it comes time...
