The little experimental chufas patch continues to do well. It could use a good rain now, but the plants are still pretty healthy:



They aren't gonna get real tall in this poor soil, but should still make a lot of chufas. They are around the 60 day mark now and some plants are flowering. I pulled up a flowering plant just to see what it looked like and was surprised to see it already had a lot of tubers:



I have seen chufas that looked really healthy not produce a single tuber until they hit the 90 day mark, so I have no idea why this plant has produced some so early. I think there is still a lot we don't understand about chufas. If I ever get my appointment as the Turkey Czar I am gonna give Auburn a billion of taxpayer dollars to do a chufas study. And I am gonna blackmail Monsanto until they produce a RR chufa.
