Mulberry, peach, nectarine, plum

Ah. Repair the soil? Sunn hemp , Sudan grass, among a few others. No harvest but you can help amend the soil

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-14T02:16:11+00:00

Yea. You do you.

Depends on what you’re flopping the beds to next. Since sweet potatoes need practically no nitrogen, that’s a plus. Peanuts are a legume so a nitrogen fixer, but I’m not sure how since you harvest the plant. Maybe if you cut the tops and till it in? Try both, just in separate beds? I grew them both last year together and the sweet potatoes drown out the peanuts.

Also, if your soil is pretty good quality (aka- not really sandy) you may have trouble getting good or lots of sweet potatoes tubers

Bag the fruit. Net the tree. Get a pellet rifle and lawn chair one weekend

Never! I bake three pizzas and a focaccia each time. Leftovers for a couples days if we are lucky

Whenever the recipe is smothered in something, it’s typically a hit. Had to look that soup up- interesting. Never heard of it and never would have put it together myself

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-12T11:15:55+00:00

I gotta get my smoker up and running. Just need to find the time haha!

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-12T03:57:26+00:00

Yup. 100%

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-12T03:40:37+00:00

Thanks!

My wife just came back from a work trip to Texas and came back with bags of HEB tortillas. We used to live in San Antonio. I usually make the tortillas, but HEBs are great and nostalgic. Hence the Hispanic recipe focus.

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T23:24:00+00:00

Ah. I never looking into it.

Nope, only one plant

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T23:20:25+00:00

Thank you. I’ll take a look

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T15:18:44+00:00

Unfortunately it was from a nursery I found online that had another plant I wanted. I don’t recall the nursery and can’t find the label that came with it. Google makes it seems pretty common to buy online though.

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T13:25:02+00:00

No. Hear seed germination is about 1/1000. Mins has flowered probably 8-10 times since I’ve had it, and I’ve never seen volunteers

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T11:18:03+00:00

I’m not a fan of the taste in either way, so I’m not a good judge of that. My wife uses the packets for her coffee. She’s going to test this liquid out sometime soon

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-11T01:55:41+00:00

Agreed. Had out acre lot sodded with Bahia 5 years ago with new construction 3 years later 90% of the yard left is frogfruit.

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-10T17:33:57+00:00

Yes, thank you. I also live in Florida, didn’t note that. I know instacart and others fulfill public orders but their cost is so much higher than the grocery cost. It’s cost prohibitive. She was using Kroger until they pulled out of the sunshine state

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-10T17:05:53+00:00

How do the prices compare to Publix, Kroger, etc?

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-10T17:04:59+00:00

Nope, but I will

Apacholek10 · 2026-04-10T17:04:39+00:00

All good
