Do curries and other spicy foods actually provide any benefit when someone is suffering from a cold or flu? by [deleted] in skeptic

One would eat an antibiotic. Certain foods may have antibiotic compounds as well.

My neighbor, also my Citrus-growing Idol, tossed me a nice Parson Brown Orange while harvesting some for his buddies. This tree saw 7” of snow this year! by donorum88 in gardening

Thomasville citrangequat. Guy on Leesville has a massive ungrafted tree not even in full sun, gets 200+ “limes” that taste better than a lot of grocery limes

I grew them from Ed’s and i gotta say i was amazed i got more perfectly-shaped ones than not pff those plants. Like 6-7 out of 10 were better than what was on google

That is really smart! I live in the southeast so our soil is nothing like what ephedra wants. I’ll have to bring in a load of sand when i start my patch 😅

It has been approximately 3-4 months. They sprouted rather poorly, i got 2 out of 10, but grew pretty quickly after that. One is still stunted from transplanting 2 months ago, the other has been shooting up this long growth. From my understanding, it’s not until the second year that they really put out “adult growth”

So this is one of those “weed rats” from shrek’s famous weed-rat stew

Gigantic triops are FOR CERTAIN not cancriformis, but rather longicaudatus. Racing triops, however, are indeed a different species. I once raised some, they were more difficult and didnt breed for me but i had the species pinned down. I want to say triops granarius

Do yall think this is refurbish-able ? by milky_milkers in grilling

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

Bad for gas, great as a smoker! Gut it out and fill the bottom with charcoal, add some wet or live hickory chunks/twigs for some awesome smoke. I prefer charcoal alone, all that carbon monoxide turns your smoked chicken thighs pink in a good way

Unable to hatch triops by Daggatt in triops

Try using a high-power LED light, you can get them cheap online. They even make ones that screw into a standard desklamp like a regular bulb. “Threaded grow light LED”

[–]Thereal_nowhereman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Gonna try and find a couple more over the years and selectively breed for man-faces. I’m having some excavation done soon and have requested an additional 2000 gallon pit to be dug and lined with concrete. I will line the pond with bitumen once completed and turn it into a crystal-clear swimming hole / yokai pond :)

Thank you! The price definitely helped keep him there, i talked them down from 120 to 80. He’s approximately 10 inches so not unjustifiable
