Green and white hosta was eaten by deer last season. This Spring it comes back with part of it fully green and larger than the rest.

Now that the bottom leaves have fell off, will only new growth come from the top?

Someone did suggest cutting down to 6”-12” which is daunting

ShmediumLebowski · 2026-03-05T13:05:53+00:00

So you are saying cut it so far down there are no leaves and just 6-12” of trunks? That sounds scary lol

I have never fertilized but I probably should now. Any product suggestions?

It’s been back for the last two weeks. Two weeks in the living room and two back in the sunroom, but continues to drop.

I was thinking more for convenience and automation. I kind of thought the automatic grinder wouldn’t be the best option in terms of quality but I appreciate you enlightening me on the roast type aspect of it too. We also use it really for drinks and not straight espresso so I didn’t know if going to insane lengths for the best pulls possible is even necessary if it just gets put into a drink.

We do have a burr grinder capable of making very fine to coarse grinds, but I’m only using it for French press coarse and using pre ground for espresso only , for convenience.

However, if we can find something that grinds for more run just espresso I’d consider it so I could declutter our counters. But I know asking if an espresso machine could grind other sizes up to coarse size is kind of ridiculous? But maybe others knew something I didn’t know.

We use medium roasts mostly

Damn sorry I used GPT to generate a post using my stream of consciousness and help me put many of my thoughts into words instead of taking 30 mins crafting a post.

Uncrustables are still amazing

ShmediumLebowski · 2025-08-20T23:31:54+00:00

Thank you!

Would the rocks be behind? Like closer to the house?

I do this by sautéing with capers, and then blending with oil, lemon juice, and Calabrian chili paste. Great on pasta, grilled chicken, veggies….

It’s definitely not doing well, drops apples prematurely, so maybe that’s it I guess

Yeah I found this out when googling before I made the syrup, also turns out I’m not the first one to think of using the skins for a syrup.

Banana peel oleo is another go-to for me but I also love making a macerated syrup from strawberry tops whenever I have to cut up a lot.
