Count yourself lucky, our water is 9.6pH at the tap here in Austin.

  Interesting. I saw that exact same type of mold growing on wild grape vines up in Waco back in like 2008. Was out playing disc golf in the woods and found neon orange alien looking mold growing on a grapevine.   Never did find out what it was called and forgot all about it til I saw your...

Made some "eggs in a cloud". Super easy, just separate 2 eggs, beat the whites to stiff peaks with a bit of salt & pepper. Spoon the egg whites onto some buttered bread (I used a split english muffin), make a little pocket for the yolk & dump them back in. Bake at 400F for 5-10 min til nice and...

Depends on the moth. The moths themselves are usually harmless but sometimes their young like to eat plants. Like tomato hornworms which are one of the most destructive caterpillars are the larvae of the sphynx moth.   ...

I didn't even know there was a TV series but I listened to the entire book series on audiobook when I had a long commute. Great series & the narrator was awesome. I guess I'll have to check out the TV show.

Hey man you might try posting this in the Hot Sauce Making subforum since this recipe request one is pretty slow. I wish I could help but I don't know much about making fermented hot sauce but there are plenty of people here on the forum that do. Good luck & welcome to THP.  ...

Pretty interesting video about the relationships between livestock, civilization & the cause of plagues:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEYh5WACqEk

Can't see what's going on in those small pics & for some reason I can't view the enlarged ones because Imageshack is not cooperating. Can you upload larger pics somewhere like www.imgur.com?

Hard to tell from the pic but it almost looks like edema (also spelled oedema).  Check out the pics on google image search and see if that's similar to what you're seeing: https://www.google.com/search?q=edema+peppers&tbm=isch

Pretty sure the fruit flies he's talking about aren't what we call fruit flies over here in the US.    Camz1492, is this the kind of fruit fly you're talking about? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bactrocera_tryoni

Yeah that looks like broad mites to me. Spinosad will probably kill them, Azamax will definitely kill them.  Also keep them away from your other plants to prevent spreading.

My post inspired me to make some:    Ingredients:    Cream cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch mix, garlic powder & lemon juice:      Mixed up & stuffed into peppers + a dusting of smoked paprika on top:     Wrapped in bacon & skewered on toothpicks:     About 40 min later cause my oven kinda...

    I usually use 1 pack for 2 8oz blocks (16oz total) but I've used a whole pack with just 1 8oz block before when I was making a smaller batch and it was fine.   Can always mix it in a bit at a time & adjust to personal taste. 

Got a bit of work done on the raised beds this weekend.   Beds were in pretty rough shape. The one with the hog fence trellis things is my new bed for this season, the one to the right of that is the one I've had since we built this garden.     Friday after work I pulled a bunch of weeds, raked...

For growing fruiting plants indoors you really cannot beat HID lighting (high pressure sodium or metal halide), especially if you are trying to cover a pretty large area. Fluorescents just don't have the intensity to penetrate the canopy very far and they do not put out anywhere near as many...

Do jalapeno poppers count? I don't even care because jalapeno poppers are awesome. You can also make them out of habaneros too if you can find some fat enough.    Even though everyone already knows how to make them I'm gonna post a recipe anyway.   Ingredients: 16 oz cream cheese Handful of...

  They show up pretty bright under UV light. Hard to spot with just a regular flashlight since they are roughly the same color as the plant.   Not my video but example: I picked up this UV flashlight ages ago for hunting scorpions and it works great for finding hornworms too. Only $12 on...

Got any pics of the grafted plants?
