Good morning folks,
and a purrfect day it is in the north country,,,couldn't ask for better weather
Joe, when I said colors at night it was from the "bright moonlight" silly man everyone knows it's been too dry for the good 'shrooms
time for me to start the canning process here, today I'll get the maters that I plant for ME picked and ready for a start tomorrow, I need to pick some basil, onions, peppers as well,,,,I make what I call pasta sauce, I usually can at least 30 qts. I also do pts of Chile sauce (chunky ketchup) hard to beat.
I also like to freeze a bunch of tomatoes whole then grab them a gallon at a time for winter use in chilly or whatever,,,always more time in the winter. I learned the freezing mater trick a few years ago if you have the freezer space it works great, run some hot water of them still frozen the skin falls off, core and toss them in the pot to cook down.
going to look at a 3pt transplanter today, does a great job on onion plants and strawberries, just a one seater, I need to find out what the proper speed is, the old ford might be to fast (believe it or not,lol) I looked at this unit a few years ago it can be changed around to plant various plants, bulbs, etc,,,,
I know little about the ground cherries but I have friends that grow them they are like Amy's and can become a weed in the garden, select an area to let them go wild in is what I have been told.
