I have been using a blend of poultry manure, blood meal bone meal, and epsom salts mixed into the soil at potting. Ten I alternate weekly feedings with aerated compost tea with bat guano and worm castings, and MG tomatoe food with thrive, molasses, hasta gro, and epsom salts. when they start...

I smoked a bunch of habs for my last sauce. Cut them in half, smoked them with pecan for 1 hour, and still have plenty of smokey flavor in the finished sauce after fermenting and cooking...

OK, the results are in. The smokey flavor mellowed quite a bit, still definitely detectable, almost the "signature" of the sauce, but far from overpowering. I agree, liquid-smoke is ghetto as hell, on par with powdered milk.... IT JUST AIN'T RIGHT.... When I first started the mash, I used a...

OK, used 38 orange habs (from the store, not gonna burn up my valuable harvest for an experiment), pecan-smoked them for 2 hours, chopped them up with my Ninja, and put them in a jar in the fridge, waiting for my starter to finish so I can get the mash started. The smoked habs smelled almost...

Imagining AND drooling :drooling: Guess there's one sure way to find out, let ya know in a hundred days! Of course, I've never made a mash before, so I won't know for certain... Maybe one batch of smoked, one batch of unsmoked, and see what happens.... :pray:

Vacuum packing has been the best for me, like 3 or 4 to a package. I also take some and dice them up really well, put them in a sandwich-sized ziplock, and flatten it out in the freezer, so it makes a nice little patty.... Then, for cooking in the winter, open it up, break off a little piece...

Good Lord, definiely not a good deal.... Home Repo and Lowes average $8.49 for a 24" 20watt T12 lamps, no waiting, no shipping, no cracked lamps when you open the package.... Don't be that guy that eBay saw coming.... ;) Of course a 48" lamp would get muuuuch better output for not much more...

Thanks to all for the warm welcome!
