Will let you know when it happens!
Hello Wellie and everybody who got hold of some Snakes of Sicily seeds from me. Due to some pressure and lot of enthusiasm from some of the grapevine members ( won't name ), on the 3rd of march C.A. at 4.45pm Greenwich time I did sowed 16 of the above seeds in a cold propagator indoors at a variable temperature of between 10 and 20c. Today I noticed that five of them started to show themself up. Usually I wait till the 1st of april to sow the first wave of the cucurbitea family and even then it can be risky unless you can provide the right conditions and protection otherwise we can call them the hopeless first wave. I will keep you informed about this particular veg. Has anybody already got some results?
This is going to be fun!!
My best regards
Don Vincenzo
