Agretti Sprouted

Fun to see these odd-looking, wiry sprouts coming up. Seems like the green will emerge from the top of a main stalk.  I have a whole row with no action, though, so I cover with plastic periodically to provide greenhouse sprouting conditions.

When we started these agretti seeds, one of our readers sent a link to the Ladybug Letter from Mariquita Farm in the Bay Area, growers of agretti. Good stuff. 

Can't wait to nibble on it.

That Agretti sounds pretty good. I am definitely going to try it.

Well they're fun to watch for sure, robj. The green green of the plant is shooting out the tops of the sprouts in two directions.
