Default Harvesting Comfry

Mine came (from garden organic) with the instructions not to harvest in
the first year. It didn't say why not but I'm guessing that like
rhubarb, asparagus and sea-kale it needs an undisturbed first year to
build up strength in the roots.


You're not going to hurt comfry, that stuff grows down to a meter in one
