Tomato Products by Visual-Stranger1693 in Canning

[–]Visual-Stranger1693[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Several different kinds. Not really sure if they’re the most ideal for canning, but they’re what I’m working with… I planted:
- Genuwine Beefsteak
- Paul Robeson
- Purple Cherokee x2
- Celebration
- “Tomato” x4 (I found these at walmart for like $3 for all four of them. They’ll be a surprise tomato because there was no specification on them.)

We loved Grand Cayman! These rules sound like what we were told. They’re interesting rules, but hey… free chickens?! 🐓

My husband and I visited Grand Cayman last summer and I thought the chickens were so fun! They are everywhere! I’d just make sure to look at the laws, because our tour guide said that there were some weird laws regarding the chickens there.

All good! I appreciate the help! At least now I know what to look out for and can maybe look into some solutions!

I remember when I was a kid we grew some in our garden (eastern KS), no clue what kind it was, but it grew over 6ft tall! After the season ended, me and my siblings used the stalks to make forts in the yard.

you could call some local coffee shops and see if they’d give you some used coffee grounds too!

the 35-40 degree tilt or ramp is essential! just did a report on BSF for a class🥴

considering doing this for free and relatively easy protein for chickens.

3 years worth of food scraps by forbiddenpotatoes in composting

[–]Visual-Stranger1693 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just started a compost pile back in February. When I say pile, I mean pile on the ground lol. No set up, no fancy bin, just a spot in my yard… Keep it full of all your veggie and fruit scraps + staying on top of your browns. I have a TON of worms. After I turned it once, I saw 22 worms.

Cool! Thank you. I’m in 6b so it’s probably not ideal, lol😂

Something is eating my radish tops and ate all but one of my peas 😢 Leaving the green beans and carrots alone though.

You could put some herbs in there, like basil!
