Re: Purslane
Steve,
I had forgotten that purslane is commonly used in Mexico. I think it's
called "verdulaga". I suspect $8.00/# will NOT fly in that market where
there is proababy some available in the neighborhood Mexican groceries for
cheap. I would look into market price begore you come back with it at too
high a price.

Re: Burlap
Try adding 1 tbsp dish detergent to the water next time to see if it acts
like a wetting agent.
