i have some Chinese broccoli growing, first time growing it, i sampled it a few days ago as it was getting ready to bloom and was disappointed in the taste, nothing like broccoli, did i harvest too early?
Great question! I have always wanted to grow papaya - it's one of my favorite fruits, and the papayas I get here in California from the store are pretty bland and small and useless. I grew up in India with a lovely productive papaya tree in our front yard, it produced the tastiest papayas. My Northern California climate is not ideal, but I think it can be done. So yep, that's on my wishlist. Do you have a top wishlist item?

I am not sure, never grown it before. But I have eaten it in Chinese restaurants and it did taste like tender broccoli. I guess I'm gonna find out!
If you had to start anything now what woukd you try?
