    I Have Full Kennel And Flu.

    @catjac1975 - Was thinking about Ny and sumi both recently :( I didn't get the chance to really know either, but gosh I am feeling for their families during the holidays and wishing them all well. And to those who really new him as a friend, I wish you well too. :rainbowflower

    Can I/How To Root These?

    It seems the best bet will be to preserve these instead of trying to root and risk them ruining. As mentioned I did take and press some petals and small flowers and for the sake of I did take the stems and put them in some soil in a small inside pot with sun. I’m not the greatest at plants but...

    Can I/How To Root These?

    My grandfather in law passed a few days ago, and after the funeral his girls (mother in law included) and grandma in law asked if I wanted to take a rose and baby’s breath home from his spray as they were themselves. They each expressed interested in wanting to try and root the flowers. I...

    Habaneros

    We've got two small batches dehydrated so far and they're currently in a tight shaker jar. If we continue to get more and the bushes grow any (they seem stunted from this weird weather we had) then I will have to use @Ridgerunner 's suggestion on powdering it and storing in a tight canning jar.

    Habaneros

    I'm hoping to learn some tips from folks here as this is the first time in probably five years I've dehydrated Habanero peppers and would love a better way to store them. The plants just started really putting on peppers so every few days I hope to be picking them and putting some up- the first...

    Discombobulated

    Some thoughts/experiences on what’s been happening: Gas is anywhere from $1.25 to $1.71 around here lately. Wonder if it will drop to under a dollar- last time I saw that was probably 14 years ago passing through North Carolina on a trip. We noticed a huge uptick in my husband’s online sales for...

    Remembering Sumi

    I think it'd be great to see a smiley for sumi similar to Nyboy's. It's hard to believe it's been this long already.

    We sure could use some NyBoy humor in these trying times...

    I was just thinking about Ny and sumi. Has there been any discussion of a smiley on behalf of sumi, similar to Ny's flower? :rainbowflower :rainbowflower :rainbowflower

    Watermelons

    @AMKuska I'm not sure how they would do for you but I can see if he has any seed - I know a few years back he had deer and surprisingly coyotes tear through a patch. If he does, I'll try and get more and send a few your way if you'd like. I still have to get with him on corn seed anyways.

    Watermelons

    This may be a bit late as I happened to just see the thread- but we're going to suggest the hometown favorite that's now made it into some big seed catalogs. A variety named the Clay County Yellowmeat (alternately Yellow Meat) was developed here in our county and it's DELICIOUS! It's such an...
