Alternate wide mouth lids?
Comments (9)I know this is late. And im not sure what your using them for. But i make a lot of diys and one of my favorites are mason jar diys. I have found that for my soap, sanitizer, and lotion dispensers if i get the lid off of my sons formula containers, cut the right size hole, and paint it it works perfectly no rust. Like i said idk what your needing them for. BUT if anyone else stumbles this way looking for alternatives for dispensers here ya go mommas. :) "I knew those formula containers that my hubby got so annoyed at me hoarding would come in handy one day."...See MoreHave you used the new platinum lids/rings?
Comments (14)I suppose the only reason I'd ever be tempted to buy them is if I'd enter some home canned goods into a county fair or something. It's gimmicky and expensive.....and that's the antithesis of home canning. Most of us who are serious canners, are thrifty and appreciate the basic natural aspect of the art. With a whole pantry of canned goods, looking like jewels on a necklace, who even looks at jars? LOL. I can at least four hundred jars a year and many of my jars were Goodwill purchases. I buy lids off-season at places who don't bother to store them away for the winter to get the best prices I can for a decent quality product. The regular old lids are twice the cost they were just a decade ago, without going to eye candy....See MoreWashing rings and lids?
Comments (7)When I'm canning multiple recipes, I put all the lids on to simmer at once. Otherwise I forget to add more and then I end up with hot product and cold lids and have to put them on without simmering. So I usually have several left at the end (a few each of regular and wide mouth). I just let them cool a little, dump out the water, and stand them up in the dish drain so they can dry off. If they stay wet, the tops can rust onto the bottoms of the others. Melissa...See MoreEmpire Zoysia doesnt look right!
Comments (6)See those blades that are purple? See those blades with the yellow spots with brown rings around the spots? See those blades with tan spots on them? Those are all signs of disease. I prefer to try an organic approach to fungal disease before trying chemicals. Back before I knew there was an organic approach, I never had any luck with chemicals. But since 2002 I've use ordinary corn meal and been pleased with it. The rate is 20 pounds per 1,000 square feet. Use it on the entire lawn because corn meal is a fertilizer and will turn everything dark green. If you only use it on the diseased spots, then you'll have green and yellow grass spots. Corn meal works by attracting a predatory fungus that feeds on the disease fungus. It takes about 3 weeks to see the improvement. If you're not satisfied with that after 3 weeks, then you can either reapply more corn meal or go to a chemical treatment....See MoreHelen Zone 6 Ohio
