    Anyone making pepper jelly?

    Trinidad Scorpion pepper doing well. Ghost peppers two months ago......... Ghost pepper today.  Not sure what is going on yet, but all the larger, older leaves fell off and so did many small peppers.  New leaves coming out though.

    Here's a few pics I took from the things that are still growing in my back yard this time of year... wet and windy morning. A couple of big beef that haven't ripened yet.  They are about 12 oz but have refused to ripen even though I topped the plant about 3-4 weeks ago. A few good sized...

    I don't do hydroponics, so I'm not much help there but I would think refreshing the nutrient solution every 4-6 weeks would be needed. As for the eggplant... I just noticed you are in PA.  They love insane heat as long as they can get water.  I'm in FL.  They seem to thrive in the middle of the...

    BONDO NEEDS ADVICE...I was "TOLD" by my daughter that I would be smoking my 23 lbs Turkey for Thank

    I recommend spatchcocking a turkey.  I've done it the past three years and wouldn't go back to cooking a bird whole.  Easier to carve and quicker to cook.

    If you like eggplant, you have got to try the self-wicking bucket.  It loves water and hot temps.  I put one small black beauty transplant in one of the buckets this past May and harvested over 35 fruits before I pulled it in late September. I fertilized it like a tomato plant to make it bloom...

    Start one Kratky box and she will see.  It cost me roughly $18-$20 to build a 2'x4' box which will grow 8 somethings on 1' spacing.... I have had great success with leaf lettuce, but I'm going to try mustard greens here in a few weeks.  Butter or Bibb lettuce is well over $2 per head in the...

    That's a belt for the final drive, right?  I think so. I get so tired of these machines that have direct drives or I should say they try to create a variable "clutch" out of what I would call a "brake".  I always liked a belt as it gave some before causing a problem on either side.  Your...

    I see you have found the Master Blend 4-18-38.  It's some pretty cool stuff and growing lettuce with it using the Kratky Method is super cool.  If the weather cooperates and doesn't make the lettuce bolt, it really is a set it and forget it method for 3-6 weeks depending on temperature.  Funny I...
