Bird nettingPeanuts wow! Are they hard to grow? And on the topic of strawberries, how does everyone keep the birds away? What sort of materials do you use for covering besides chicken wire?

It's pretty similar to cabbage. People mostly use it in salads. You can also put it in soups or roast it. This is my first time trying to grow it, so I've never tasted it or anything.What’s Kohlrabi used for? I love the name
Well, it was entertaining... Not sure what's up with this corn, but the air popper just warmed them and then blew them right out. Popper ended up empty without a single popped kernal.Let us know how it goes

Now, I did take them off of the cob too early because some of the cobs were moldy or buggy and I pulled the good stuff and trashed the bad parts, so I could have damaged them doing that when they were too soft. They are also a little more pointy than the parent seeds, I planted yellow popcorn (nearly round) and got kernals that were closer in shape to white popcorn (more oval or pointy) which, come to think of it, I can't get white popcorn to pop well in my air popper either....
I've gotten white from walmart before and over half of it blew out of the popper without being popped. With the yellow I usually end up with maybe 10-15 kernels out of 1/2 cup (unpopped) that don't pop. I ended up feeding the white corn to Felix after 2-3 times trying to pop it and just watching it fly out of the popper.I use white in my air popper usually store brand from Walmart or Publix or Kroger
What popper do you have?I've gotten white from walmart before and over half of it blew out of the popper without being popped.

I think it's this one: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Orville-Redenbacher-s-Hot-Air-Popper-by-Presto-04821/14543966What popper do you have?
Wondering if the white kernels need more heat? Sometimes I do the popcorn in olive oil on the stove and it makes it super yummy darn oil lol
