Aubergine or weed?
« on: May 10, 2013, 12:32:02 pm »
We have not grown aubergines before but decided to give it a go this year.  We planted as per instructions and grew this.  Is it an aubergine plant or do we have a healthy looking weed here?

:roflanim: :roflanim: love it.  I will now go to the polytunnel and let my bewildered OH know that he has indeed nurtured a fine specimen of the weed variety.  Bless 'im!

Just for fun - what sort of weed do we think it is?  Milk thistle?
