      I suspect you'll lose one or two chits getting them out of the sacks :)

            I thought it was rhubarb you forced like that. Those will make some interesting pies.

                Your chits are too long Steve, if you are going to chit them for that long you need more light. Here are mine - chitting started in July but I changed my mind about planting them for XMas and carried on chitting them until the following Spring :)
