I don't own a cell phone for easy pictures in the garden, sorry to not be helpful. I can tell you they grow just like tomatoes but don't vine out as much. Still can get very unruly so next year I will space them a little farther apart than seed packet recommended, just so I can harvest a little...
Grew garden huckleberries this year. Have 3 gallon bags full of the berries so far and they're still producing. They made a great fruit crumble, jam was ok (think it would be better with some other fruit mixed in) Made a Chinese plum sauce last night with half plums and half huckleberries and it...
Crush your eggshells and put in a pitcher of water, add a splash of vinegar to break down the calcium out of the shells faster. Let sit a little bit and water around the soil. Safe for animals.
Tell your hubby it could be worse! Lol I used to bring home stray people, homeless, domestic abused, whatever always seemed to find me. Hubby is quite happy that I limit myself to animals now.
30 minutes could be a nice outing, if I don't have to go on the freeway. Sounds like a fun day checking it out. Thank you for being so kind to let me know about it.
Edit:
Online I can only find a Habeggars Amish market that sells produce and plants only. Still a fun day, but is it the bulk...
Think you're making out better with your system than I am with mine. I paid cash, but because I'm retired never made enough on social security to use those tax credits. Our electric company can pay us whatever they want for the electric I produce, and over the years they've lowered it and...
I have a net zero solar unit on the house. Cost 12 years ago 25,5000. God only knows what they cost now. Anyway, 1st year I paid electric company a pittance for half the year, the other half they paid me. 2nd year, their rates went up and the amount they pay for electric went down and maybe 4...
Thank you!!!! Such a better deal than the little 4 oz jars of fleichmanns yeast I usually buy. Going to order some now. That Sams club price is good, but not when I factor in a membership cost into it. Plus Amazon will send it to my door, not having to deal with traffic, other shoppers, and...
97* and super high humidity. Farmer up the road lost 2 calves to this heat, so I've brought my chickens in the house for a day or two. 4 pet play pens ( 2 in the spare bedroom, 2 in the bathroom), 3 chickens to each pen. Cleaning every hour on the hour and even that doesn't seem like its enough...
I grew up in SW washington. Moclips, aberdeen, West port then silverdale. I remember rowing down the alley in a little row boat to visit friends, there was so much rain. I thought our state bird should've been the mosquito, they were so big and prevalent. One summer we made a contest out of who...
