Hi Christofer, yes, mint does too well. I could ship you a garden load
and still have lots to spare.
I also have lots of chives and ever-bearing strawberries, but found parsley
and dill did poorly. So much for my pickles. (grin) Oh well I will just have
to keep trying and experimenting.
CG> And potatoes. They are supposed to be great at conditioning soil.
I have never tried potatoes since I do not have much room. However, my
tomatoes came up from seed when I started some plants the year before so
I guess anything is possible.
I have also found many bulbs work well.
