HTH.

Thanks everyone, I think Ive got it now! :-D


From that site:

During subsequent years three or four stalks can be pulled at a time with
three or four left on the plant. It is usually possible to harvest two or
three times per plant per year between May and August.

Does that really mean only 6-12 sticks per plant?
Perhaps I have multiple plants growing in the same place, then, cos I can
generally take 12+ sticks at a time without it even making a dent in the
plant! And I can do that 2 or 3 times a month.
