Has anybody ever tried growing peanuts ?

Hi everybody,

Have anyone of you ever tried growing peanuts ?

I've been reading a few pages about it on the internet and I am considering having a go at growing them in the greenhouse.

Any thoughts, suggestions or tips would be appreciated.

They need about 5 months of warmth. If you think we're going to get it I'll nip out and buy that barbecue!

thanks for the links two sheds, very interesting reading.

I think I'll give it a go, I have another greenhouse coming this week and I plan on making it a temperature controlled enviroment by installing heaters and a thermostat I've already insulated the stone base.

I should, if I build it right be able to grow for much longer into the season.
