Is that big for spinach? I've never grown any so don't know what it's meant to be like.

TBH I haven't gotta clue! But it's bigger that I normally pick which is half the size normally!!

Shame! My mates's mum apparently has a contender, but I've not seen the evidence yet. :whistle:

Ok, but I'll be better next year, so you'll need to top the 1lb mark.

Ok then, if you're challenging my tomato, next year I'll be growing sunflowers too.

Well, on that website they look and sound just like the banana legs.

But the website I bought them from said Orange Banana. I guess they're the same thing. I'm quite pleased with them.
