    Anyone else growing dwarf tomatoes?

    S7, I believe that your current zone is slightly longer than mine (N. Oregon). I have done tumbling Tom in the past with good results. This year I'm doing golden gem (parks seed) in both 6.5 gal container and ground. Both doing well. I'd say they r a bit bigger than dwarf, but may stay...

    Costco Rant

    Weeellllllll.  What was it?  Hijacked by the mafia?  System crash due to Russian hackers?  Comet NEOWISE disrupting GPS guidance to your humble abode?       FYI, I love Costco - as long as I'm not the one stepping foot in their establishments with the unwashed masses (and I find the giant carts...

    Costco Rant

    I guess that some people are just sadists.  They enjoy prolonging pain and torture.     In the good 'ol US of A, we will continue to have restaurant/bar shutdowns and many of the other current restrictions as long as mask wearing and the other simple recommendations are yawned upon.  The US as a...

    misc Scientific Observations of Environmental Stress on Pepper Varieties

    Regarding the SFGate article, if you want hot peppers, then why are you growing jalapenos?  The article should be - Grow pepper varieties other than jalapenos if you want heat.   Also:   "If you see a spot of red or orange on a jalapeno, harvest it right away as it's reached the peak of...

    outdoors a fishing thread

    Now for some left coast saltwater.   Went out with a coworker off the Oregon coast for a couple of morning trips for groundfish.  Pretty simple fishing - 20 oz lead ball, a couple of jigs tied on above, tip jigs with a hunk of squid, drop down to the bottom at about 120 feet of water, vertical...

    Garlic - do I have to dry for best taste?

    I'm pretty good at growing garlic. Plant at Halloween, harvest July 4, pretty much neglect in between those dates. This year I'm down to 3 varieties, and harvested just shy of 200 plants. I've already ate a few (good as usual), and given some away. To store, I have two methods -both begin...

    food Make your best taco.

    Aren't pickled cucumbers, ummm, well, pickles? Only thing missing is the Chez. But, the red cabbage n shrimps are a thang of beauty. Hard to visually beat a red n white dish, with a green accent on the side.

    fermenting Vacuum bag fermentation

    So, I'm running low on hot sauce, so I decided to go ahead and blend up my first bag ferment. It has been 12 days fermenting. Bag was only a bit on the rise, but it looked really good inside. I opened the bag, sniff test was quite stout but good. I tossed it into a pan, added a little...

    fermenting Vacuum bag fermentation

    UnNatural, Yea, I'll let ya know how it compares to jar/vacuum fermentations. What I do like is the potential of less brine to dilute the heat.     The nikiri was my first kitchen knife purchase in years.  Pretty much a mid-quality blade for a mid-price.  I love it for veggies.  Kids and wife...

    fermenting Vacuum bag fermentation

    So glad that this thread was brought back to life. I had totally forgot about this method. All my other ferments have been done in jar with vacuum pump lid. Well, I had a few mixed red peps in the freezer, harvested the past couple of weeks (aji rojo, Apache, aji limo, Thai, and Spezzano...
