    Has anybody worked with kenaf in the northwest? I want to grow it and I've already started it indoors but I want to know if its even worth trying or the results. Anybody?

    Thanks, but I've seen both already. Supposedly they are grown north but have shorter growing seasons. Just wanted to know first hand.

    Oh, I figured you'd done your legwork - I just like to add material for others to learn. I hope someone will pipe up for you with firsthand experience.
