spuds, vines, silks...and, most importantly, seeds

the spuds i transplanted last saturday have adapted to their new environment fairly well and have begun to expand to their larger quarters tot he extent that i have already begun to "hill" them...
there is excellent growth in the much slower yacon as well...however still no word from the third rhizome in the container...
one mashua plant is looking questionable though these two are doing just fine...
while the largest of the vines has firmly attached itself to the trellis...
the biggest news of the day is over in a teosinte container with its cohabitants the nasturtiums...
the first plant to sprout silks...
has been joined by a third...
however both have been leapfrogged by the second which has produced not only silks, but seeds...without a husk and the viability is very questionable...i am somewhat giddy to have gotten this far though.
