Hi,

Tigger gave me these spikey little fellows-just wondering how big they have to be before I harvest them? I've got one that's about 15cm and the spikes easily rub off now.

Thats unusual for Tigger to give anything away. :shock: :wink:
You normally pick them when they are about eight to twelve inches, but you could pick them smaller if you want. If you pick them smaller, you will just get more quicker.

Kind regards Old Herbaceous.
