I haven't seen either post since fall either. I hope all is well with both of them.

Just getting old and slow but still kickin. Cut way back but still have several trial varieties this year. Two that have performed well and have been harvested.

Green Forest

Bistro

Good to see you farmerdill! Your produce looks great!

I considered ordering some Green Forest romaine this year but it fell out of my Johnny's cart when I remembered that I still had a full packet of Ridgeline romaine. I have 6 Ridgeline doing well now and just starting to head up. My Dragoon mini romaine are ready to harvest this weekend and the Breen aren't far behind.

Glad you're doing well, farmerdill. How does Bistro fair compared to other varieties you grow or have grown?

It is an Afila type, stiff vine heavy tendrils. I grow double row and this type holds well without additional support. Good yield, good taste. Productivity is comparable Pls 525, Survivor, easy Peasy. All this type are best for once over harvest. Small pods. I rate it fourth compared to the above varieties. Many regular vine peas will give a longer harvest. My favorite over the years Green Arrow. If I could not grow but one variety that would be it, BUT I like variety. Most of the varieties I have trialed over the years can be found in Plantfiles.
