I tried to add a reply to two posts and got an "error on page" note !! But then it asked me to sign in again !! Would that be the reason my posts did not work ?? Sign in was negated ?? Or is it common to have to do this occassionally ??

Hi Martha, I drive past a wonderful lady who every year fills a wheelbarrow at the curb with a sign - free grapefruit! I made marmalade with it last year and it was superb.

Hey thanks !! I am going to try it tomorrow !! Thanks for the link !! I have never tasted marmalade from grapefruit, only from oranges so this will be a learning experience for me !! I will sure tell everyone how it turns out !!!

Hi Martha I am sure grapefruit would make superb marmalade. I have never tried making it, but here is a link to someone who has. Remember!! Use a thick pan. Let us know how it turns out. Glenn

Martha,

Almost all of the ingredants for Kimchi you can get at most any super market. The only one you may have trouble duplicating is the red pepper power that the Koreans use. It is course ground and does not have all the seeds. If you are in the DFW area sometime it would be worth the trip to a Korean Market there. One to look up is called Kormart. It was up around Irving somewhere.

Hi Martha,

The Red Rippers are growing well here - I have two planting of them about 3 weeks apart - all is well. Will start some of the Cream 40's soon.

Thanks again for the seeds - They are likely to become regulars in the garden.

Hi Martha,

Perhaps this is a better way to pass personal information than on the open forum. My email is darrols@earthlink.net. I will need a mailing address for sending seeds - be great to share them and find out what you think.

Hi Everett I found this article on Mycorrhizal Fungii which i think is quite interesting. I am sure the production of this stuff is one of the benefits of the "hugelkultur pile" that you describe. I know on the TV gardening programmes they advocate…

Wow Sandra! You've asked for an awful lot of information! Start by checking for your "predicted" last frost date. There are frost charts online, but the quickest way for you, I think, is to call your county extension agent. He'll be listed in the ph…

Had no luck with gem squash last year - it was just too hot! So I didn't try this year. Maybe next summer.

Yes it's hot but very humid which is unusual. We are having a spell of days in the low 30s but tropical air is being pushed south by the weather systems up north and we are getting rain and humidity. The rain we love - the humidity we are not used t…

yes - the pods are quite tough. We only ate the peas inside and we always ate them green although many Indian people dry them. They are known as toovar dhal in Gujerati or tuvaram in Tamil and there are lots of recipes for them dried. Just google to…

HOW TO - ADD A LINK

Several people have experienced difficulty putting working links into comments and blogs etc and I know it is clumsy.... so here is how you do it.....

First type the text you want to appear....  ie  IAN'S PAGE

Then go back and highlight the link text.

Then hit the hyperlink button...a pictogram of a chain link.

Your browser may intervene and request permission to allow temporary scripting or some similar message.   Allow it and go back and highlight the text again
