After my 2 plant started getting limp and the cots shrivled up and the plant fell over starting to die before I could even get them in the ground (I dont know what happened it was strange to me)I asked others if they hand any backups left that they didnt need with no luck. I attmpted to start 2 more with out any luck. So my season is over. I will probly just plant a veggie garden this year. I guess I will focus more on my running this year. But I would like to wish everyone else on this site a Wondefull and Great Season. Good Luck and Grow EM Big! Thanks! Jordan
