I can't believe my neighbor did this! Dead fish
Comments (17)Hello..... I have no problem with throwing anything that rots into the ground!!! I have buried my dogs,parakeets, cats, mice, fish, lobsters, and my worst enemy,and so on near my plants...Any plant living near these things that I have buried, seem to do GREAT..I buried at least 20 pounds of fish next to a dying red bud tree 2 years ago, and that thing came back with a vengance! We know for sure the ground is the place to be for these things... But in containers???? Thats my point.. I just thought that burying these things in CONTAINERS only invites trouble and a whole bunch of maggots, and does nothing for a potted plant...In fact, maggots is what I saw crawling over the top of some of his containers, falling over the edge with tons of birds having a field day on a hot day last week... Funny thing is though, the ones that have not been dug through by varmits, are doing quite well anyways or yet still....lol My backyard STILL reeks like a whole lot of dead fish by the sea. It masks out the sweet smells from all my sweet lilies and anything else that use to make my backyard smell so nice. I hope this smell goes away fast, or I will send out the cats in my local pet shelter to have a field day..Those poor poor things cooped up all day in those small cages the next block from me......I can hear them houl all night sometimes,..;-( :-(...See MorePressure canning fish - anyone?
Comments (17)Hi Bejay....I know you responded this morning and I was going to get back to you after painting my office ceiling. This will look a little silly if your post shows up again, but from memory - I've done offshore salmon fishing both sports and commercial, but the tuna trips here are overnighters except in rare years where they come closer than about 80 miles of our harbor - I do can tuna every year though whether I've caught it or not, like many people I know. My MIL worked seasonally in canneries from time to time and she didn't pressure can at home - she took tuna to the cannery, had them baked whole, returned when that was done, filled her cans adding olive oil just like the commercial preparation. It tasted just like what you could buy on any grocery store shelf. I was never interested in trying it until a friend help me raw pack fresh tuna in her kitchen - I haven't bought a can in more years than I can remember. Finding out if a charter will loin fish that have been bled is simply a matter of asking when the reservation is made. Fillet isn't the same as a loin...here's a photo of a tuna loin and it's what you want to can. With the darker strip along the side removed, it's ready to be rinsed and cut into chunks.

Comments (5)OK, this post intrigued me and I did further research. Most listings of toxic plants include lilies - generally the species Lilium as well as many other members of the Liliaceae or lily family. The toxins are alkaloides and are present in varying concentrations, some species more so than others. If you do the research, alkaloides are a pretty significant natural toxin. But it appears that alkaloides may not be present in all species or in such low concentrations as to not be a hazard. And it would appear that cooking the bulbs will neutralize these concentrations even further. Eating the bulbs fresh may not be a good idea :-) I'd still recommend substantial research on any particular species before cooking or eating, but the attached link may be a start. Here is a link that might be useful: edible lilies...See MoreNew Tomatoes for this Year & which can't you live without?
