Over there at [email protected] I already posted a few updates concerning my saffron.

I originally planned to plant a few bulbs of saffron crocus (Crocus sativus) into my hydroponic setups, but also placed the other half or so into soil outside.

One of the bulbs, and probably the only one this year, started flowering just a few weeks after planting them.

Funnily, it started blooming just when the very first snow hit!

I harvested the only three strands, which is typical, and ate one right away. It tasted like nothing. Maybe they need drying and curing first, I don’t know 🤷
