Thinking Small

[gamgee]

Has anyone here ever grown baby corn?

Also, Brussels sprouts are like little cabbages.

Baby carrots are really ugly carrots they grind down and wash with bleach water.


But miniature cows can give as much milk as a full sized one.


So if you are picking between small carrots or cows.......................

I always think the same thing whenever I have brussels sprouts.

And in my head I'm Gulliver when eating baby corn.

My feeble attempt at hydroponic corn left me with a stalk that got about 8" tall and then popped up some tassles. I think I messed up the NPK levels on it trying to boost my tomato plants.

I had about 6 corn and 3 tomaters. I brush pollinated the tomaters with success, but they came out fast (21 day from seed to harvest) and I think I pumped the Phosphorous too high while the corn was tiny and the tomaters were ready for phase 3 . And that is my story of how I got baby corn. When a mommy corn and a daddy corn plant love each other, some weird giant with a toothbrush rubs their pistil and stamens for them.

"tomato plants"

Yeah, that's what my friend's mom called them when we were kids. She was super pissed when we picked her tomato flowers and smoked them, rolled up in news paper.

They are still called tomato plants today, though I haven't gardened in a couple years due to being institutionalized. I gave up hydroponics for soil due to cost and maintenance efforts. The last couple years I just had tea plants for long nights of book reading.

Brussel sprouts look like fish eyes and I'm sure they taste just as bad

[Harry Henderson]

Try them with a dash of garlic, and some cheese.
