I really like those things on occasion. Had one tonight, in fact.
How hard are they to grow?? I don't spend a lot of time taking care of a plant. I put seed in a pot and water a little and they are pretty much on their own.
I had a fantastic crop of tomatoes last year by that method. just wondered if jicama were that easy to grow?? Tom

a friend grows 'em in 5 gallon buckets in a sun room.
tried one once. not bad.
Honestly, I believe if more people knew about them, they would appear in many more salads. Tom

Love thick slices with Lemon Juice and some Salt...
Tried to grow them once. But our climate would not cooperate. The plant above ground did good. But the roots were very small so I did not mess with them again.
yeah, they're good in salads. pronounced "himica"
