black nightshade
Honestly does not sound like something you should eat
I mean I’m no botanist, but aren’t all of the crops mapped onto the little girl actually just nightshades with extra steps?
Every plant named in this meme, not just the ones on the girl, is a nightshade.
Oh shit I’ve been eating these for years along with millions of people. Are we all going to die?
It’s the name I’m on about. It’s not really mainstream friendly. I’m sure they are lovely.
I’m just poking a bit of fun at the absolute panic people experience when they hear the word nightshade. Despite the fact that people have been eating a variety of nightshade species for thousands of years if not longer.
I tried growing tomatillo, the damn thing is shooting flowers but nothing coming of it. The tomato plant next to it is already bearing fruit, almost ripe!
Screw that thing, if I don’t see any fruiting by the end of the month I’m ripping it out of the ground!
Tomatillos aren’t self pollinating, they need a buddy plant. I have two side by side in my garden and both are producing fruit.
I did NOT know that, thank you. I’m going to prep a few more in my hydroponic, hopefully they’re not out of season just yet.
Probably need at least two more tomatillo plants, and those might need two more each
But I’m no mathematician
I’ve always seen tomatillos for sale in supermarkets (western US). Are they not common elsewhere?
Sorry, eggplant is a better name for them. Aubergine is just a color.
Like orange?
