I fileted 6 tilapias from my tilapia tank and used the bones to make a collagen enriched white soup. I seasoned it with ginger, green onion, salt, and mushroom seasoning. It tasted neutral like white beef bone broth. I am glad I tried it. I usually throw the bones away after fileting the fish. -

I am really impressed with this Devil tree eggplant graft. It's easier to spray and prune when the branches are a distance off the ground. In addition, I am able to wrap a grafting tape around the stem and insect glue around the stem and support, so the ants can't mine aphids. I wonder how big... -

The new 2025 hybrid variety of grape cherry tomato called Coral that I got from Hoss tools gave me a volunteer. It looks and grows like the original hybrid Coral. It supposed to be indeterminate, but it doesn't grow straight and tall, each branch seems to stop growing and send out a new side... -

My Shelby paste tomato harvest was not as productive as my Red Snapper or Hossinator tomatoes grown in the same containers. The Shelby is new for 2025; I tried it because of the TYLCV resistance and heat tolerance. It's a flimsy looking plant. I wish the Super Sauce hybrid tomato had TYLCV... -

I don't think the age matters as long as the scion is from a fruiting tree. Also, as long as one side of the sion lines up with the branch it will catch if done right. I wrap my scion with parafilm to keep the moisture locked in and I use clear grafting film to wrap the cut. It's good to prepare... -

I had a tofu salad at my local golf course restaurant today for lunch. It had green and red lettuce and cherry tomatoes with soft tofu squares piled on top and it was served with a sweet and tangy Japanese miso sauce that had a hint of shoyu in it. This was my first time eating lettuce this way... -

The only thing with this zapper is it needs to be under a roof. I have one hanging outside in my back yard under a 10ft x 10ft heavy-duty easy corner tarp tent that covers my tilapia tank and filter. I also have one hanging in my garage. I can walk around outside without a shirt. I blow on it to... -

Today, I decided to let my 3 Ebay Isa Brown chicks out to play unsupervised. I have been throwing scratch next to their pen to let the older hens get acquainted with them for a few weeks. I hope the stray cats don't eat them. They are larger than the doves the cat prey on, and the cats know I am... -

I found this picture of the Louisiana 16-inch-long pod okra under the Baker's Creek review list. These plants get really tall. -
What did you do in the garden today?
Last year when I grew the Louisiana 16-inch-long pod okra from Baker's Creek for the first time. I didn't like the light green color and the hollow airiness of the pod. I preferred the dark green color and fleshy texture of the Clemson Spineless Okra. However, this year the Louisiana long okra... -

It's a good thing I cut off one of my air layered mango branches and potted it today. The roots were filled in, but the potting mix was bone dry. I have 3 more that I need to cut and pot, but I ran out of perlite to make the mix. I order my bulk perlite bag from amazon. it's cheaper than Home...
