Steve, have you tried the one on youtube that Chef Jarod has a video on? It is baby bok choy steamed and has a simple garlic soy sauce. It is really good.
There is a lot of good information on youtube on fig propagation. I am in zone 6 but it is still iffy to have inground figs here so mine are grown in containers and moved into the garage for winter after they have gone dormant. Here is a cutting of an Unk Yellow Greek from a figs4fun forum...
That is weird. As mentioned above, something was wrong and I would refrigerate or freeze them. Loosing a little fluid is not a biggy, but loosing most of the fluid is a canning failure. We have actually reverted to freezing corn instead of pressure canning it to get a better texture and...
yea digitS, I see folk asking about the best tomato for this and that but and just shake my head. Local knowledge is so important to seek out. I enjoy growing out some of the strong heirlooms to see how they grow here. Some do, and some don't. That is gardening. I hope the OP will continue...
so lucky, I am in SW Missouri and have had great success growing Rutgers from Baker Creek seeds. We freeze and can quite a bit and Rutgers has worked out well for us. I realize the same tomato may be quite different is different states because of climate and soil but we are fairly close to...
Scapes form on hardneck varieties. I plant softnecks here which don't produce scapes. When the leaves are about 40% dried is time to check for harvesting and not by a certain date.
Skeeter9, those look very nice.:woot Hope mine come out that well.
Thanks journey11. This is a first for me with fruit trees. I ordered from Stark Brothers and received them a couple weeks ago. They are showing signs of swelling buds so have my fingers crossed. Hope you have a bunch of yummy pears this year!
Thanks Ridgerunner. I have been confused about that issue from different sources comments. Would that be the same suggestion for pears and apples? Appreciate your help.
ron, you will get a lot more meaningful responses if you will go back to your profile and put in your location/zone. Putting seedlings outside this time of year is totally dependent on where you are. Some folks still have 2' of snow on the ground. I agree with so lucky about getting more light...
I understand journey. It's 37 here right now and predicting 27 tonight with some light rain/snow. No accumulation at all thought just uncomfortable weather when the sun comes up.
lol journey. Touching up out of common sense necessity is always good. Sounds like time for a fence in WV. Hope you folks are having some early
good gardening weather. It's really up and down here with the changing and inconsistent weather here.
I just planted a new potted pear tree from Stark Brothers. I was trying to get bare root but waited too long to order. I was curious about a minor amount of pruning. A couple of the branches were not pruned to outward buds and wanted to know if pruning them now to outward buds was okay in my...
Thanks Ridgerunner. I started a big ol' honkin organic sweet potato about a week ago and it is just now starting to get some fuzzy little roots but no evidence of actual slips. Appreciate it.
