Default Re: early start

I don't think that you can take the, "Cut until you see green" too literaly. In another thread I had mentioned that, when I uncovered some basjoos, the p-stems were green to the tip. Actually, because of lack of light when they were covered, they were yellow to the tip. After being exposed to the light for a while, they greened up. I think it would be better to say, "Cut until you no longer see black or brown." I think, if you see white, it's good; just needs a little light to get green.
