    Four heads were cut today. They are a bit small, but I have seen similar size in the Supermarket. The production is about 7 heads from each plant. The heads were larger in 2007, but this has been a cool summer. I boil for about 15 minutes or pressure cook, and pull the scales off, dip in melted butter and eat the flesh from the end.
