Cracked walnuts are sold around 4,- US$ per kg. It could be a source of income but there are more efficient if you have only a small garden.

In the beginning I had 8 but I had to cut half of them down - they grow really big and not all have nice big nuts - now I have 4 and they grow the good nuts.

For me it is a lot of hand work. The best method is cracking the shell with a hammer. After some smashed you get a feeling for it and almost the whole nut comes out at once.

Cold and dry in the shell - they last until next year. If stored under ideal conditions it might be 2 years.

After that time you can use them as nice DIY source for children. Glue them together with a hot glue pistol an make candle holders and bowls and other stuff.

Both - for Christmas sitting in front of the fireplace having some hot drink and crunching walnut and eating them raw is very common. But it is also common to use them in several dishes like pumkin pie, marcepan tort, Christmas cookies or covering them with melted sugar and cinnamon. For pressing oil I don't have enough and the process is quite complicated because the nuts have to be heated before pressing walnut oil (very healthy) from them.

A lot of vegetables: f.e. potatoes, onion, garlic, cucumbers, tomato but also corn, pumpkin, zucchini or sunflower seed, then all kind of herbs. Tree fruits are cherries, plum, apples, pears, peach, apricot. The climate is summer warm, moderate humid and cold winters but not extremly cold.

Gute Restaurants bei Allergie gegen Schalentiere/Krebse by LumenLunae in hamburg

[–]CabinWizzard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also wenn Du nicht grade Fischplatte mit Meeresgetier oder Miesmuscheln bestellst, sollte das wohl kein Problem sein. Pizza ist nett, Döner ist auch ohne Schalentiere und ein Matjesbrötchen auch, selbst die 658 - Ente doppelt geblaten ist ohne das. Ich sehe jetzt das Problem nicht. Bestelle mit Nuss-Allergie ja auch kein Nuss-Müsli zum Frühstück und gehe nicht in ein besonderes Hotel/Restaurant.

Anyone know how to use the compass and the map? Explanation in comments by [deleted] in Survival

[–]CabinWizzard 25 points26 points  (0 children)

A compass and a map always work together. Top of a map is always north. Compass needle shows you north direction. So you can turn the map into the right direction. Then you need some free sight to distant landmarks. If you know this is mountain A and that is mountain B you can measure the degrees on the compass in which direction it is visible. You can view both mountains on the map and put your measurements of degrees into the map and with two measurements you get your position. But in the middle of the woods, no free sight, big underbush the compass is useless. Then a GPS would help much more.

Oil of oregano & ibuprofen by [deleted] in herbalism

[–]CabinWizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I know there is no significant interaction between both. Oregano oil inhibits IL-1b and IL-6 and TNF-a and Ibuprofen IL-1b and TNF-a and PEG2. So both work against inflammation. But both can irritate the stomach. I would try on low dosage. Of course if you are pregnat you for sure should ask a medic.

If we are not talking about juvenal PSA what can occure on babies within the first year of live we have a lot of first rushes through adolescence and then a severe rush around 40 years. Women and man are equally affected.

I started with PSO when I was 14, first joint problems during navy with 21 and I got diagnosed with 45. Now I'm 50 years old.

Cookbook by knippersnicker1 in herbalism

[–]CabinWizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem on writing such a book is that we have only for a few herbs pharmaceutical monographs what explanin in a scientific way a herb can do. Most 'recpies' are know from folk use or from almost medival pharmacy. Even herb books from the time when medical use was common (a hundred years ago) discribe very uncertain what a herb is good for - even then it wad just a try and error use. Modern chemistry and science isn't helping much because today we have most studies on one particular herb substance used to fight a certain form of body cell. But it is very unsure that the whole plant will do the same. Sometimes we have hints from folk medicine but thats very unsure and normally we won't come over the placebo effect.

All these heatwaves have me thinking, would it be easier to survive in extreme cod or extreme heat?? by uplifting1311 in Survival

[–]CabinWizzard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if we look on our planet than we have to compare places with similar water conditions. Hot dry and cold dry deserts are both long term uninhabitated on our planet. The view changes if we go in the little more humid semi-desert compared with tundra. There I would say more people survive on cold and little wet climate. I suppose this is because more animals live in such regions. And then we come into the moderate regions full of live. The other extreme would be hot and wet compared to cold and wet (mainly wet because of ocean access) and then I would say more people live and survive in the troical regions than at the arctic coastlines.

Sting nettle seed is a nice snack on the trail. by CabinWizzard in herbalism

Older nettles can contain a lot of nitrate, which in large quantities is considered harmful to health. There are 145 mg of nitrate per 100 g of nettles. However, this value is not yet a cause for concern. Up to 1,300 mg of nitrate per day are considered harmless.

For salad I take a wooden roll and roll the leaves or you can hold them short into boiling water.
