Maca


The maca survived the winter and looks quite happy amongst the weeds. There isn't a lot of it and its not very photogenic.

  1. Oooh, that looks quite exciting. Did you have enough to taste? What was it like?

  2. Proves it's tough, but if your experience is anything like mine, it's not exactly high yielding. Was it growing outside? Have you tasted it?

  3. I tasted very small ones last summer and they were mild and radishy. They are outside. I tasted another today that looked about to go to seed. It was eye-wateringly horseradishy. About 20 have survived the winter so i will let them go to seed now.
