About Peanuts: Growing
The plants are tended throughout the summer. Peanut plants “bloom” in mid-June. This puts the “peg” in the ground, which then grows to become the peanuts. While the peanuts grow in the ground, they are nourished through the stem of the plant.
Peanuts are also very sustainable to grow. It only takes just one gallon of water to make an ounce of peanuts.
