Comments (21)Down and others, re the spelling of Gary'O Sena, I meant to say "apostrophe" and not "hyphen", but you probably already figured that out. On this JD's Special C-Tex *Pink*, I'm not sure whether this was a mutation or a cross (or maybe even an instability), but I tend to think cross. Shouldn't a true mutation be stable? In any case, saved seeds from it seem to be unstable for at least some. Not sure how saved seeds turned out for *everyone*, but an attendee at SETTFest got a avg tasting (at best, imo), roundish med red. I don't know everything there is to know about JD's Special C-Tex and have only grown it a couple of times, but what is pretty much known is that it was the result of a cross made and stabilized by a Texas grower (JD Whittaker). Also, transplants have been sold for several years in the South Texas/Houston area at a few of the better nurseries, but can occasionally be hard to find. So, this variety has been around for a while. A topic that comes up every spring (for the last 3 years, at least) on the Texas forum here is folks asking if anyone has managed to locate JD's transplants yet. The actual parental inputs involved might be a little more uncertain. My understanding is that Brandywine as one of the parents is pretty much known, but what the black was might not be so clear. Some have suggested CP might be the dark, but I don't think so based on the size and shape of JD's. JD's is usually a little smaller than BW or CP, and tends to be more round than either of those vars. When I asked Darrel/fusion about this a while back, he also felt that a smaller, more globe-like dark (than CP) was probably used. Among fellow tomato nerds, Darrel has been growing this variety longer than anyone I know of except for perhaps Jay/brazos. Plus, he knows a little more about tomato genetics than I do, which is why I had originally asked his opinion on what the cross might have been. More: (1) JD's Special C-Tex = JD's Special C-Tex Early Black, as far as I know, and (2) there was also another cross done by JD, which was sold as a red hybrid (F1, not stabilized) called C-Tex Southern Heat Set. For whatever reason, this red one has not caught on nearly as much, could be taste or maybe because it was a hybrid (dunno)....See MoreRecirculating vent
Comments (1)A "sanitary tee" is a specific kind of pipe fitting used where waste is involved (hence "sanitary") that allows one pipe to join in with a main run (a "T" shape). It is different than a "straight tee" in that the way it is shaped, flow down the main branch doesn't have as much of a tendency to flow into the branch....See MoreWhat's going out from your kitchen for Christmas ?
Comments (55)I hope you have a wonderful time baking tomorrow rhome! Double ovens.. swooonn.. lol. Boy am I a slacker compared to ya'll. For the New Orleans boxes I made regular chocolate chip, peanut butter with colored sugar [as per tradition] and fudge. The kids only like certain stuff and the fudge is Christys family tradition so she has to send her sister and mother some. I sent them a pecan pie too. I've also made meltaways, world peace, milk choc choc chip, shortbread, more fudge and caramels for Christys fellow employees. The caramels sure did turn out great this year. I forgot to put in the vanilla. lol. I think I like them better. You can really taste the butter. The execs got pecan pies. I have dough in the fridge for the rest of the milk choc chips and I took some of that dough and instead of chips I added bunch of old fashioned oats to it for me. I am weird in that I don't like cookies to sit around very long. I'd rather have them fresh, so I tend to make doughs and just bake off a pan or two at a time. So, as it gets closer to Christmas I'll be still making our ricotta cookies, some rugeleah, sand tarts, and for the Christmas dessert I'll make a pecan pie and chocolate pie. For Christy's stocking I'm making Ann's crisp truffles and some chocolate covered raisins. So, let me make a list.. hmm.. Standard chocolate chip Peanut butter World Peace Meltaways Rugeleah Milk chocolate chocolate chip Oatmeal Shortbread Sand tarts Ricotta cookies Sugar Cookie cutouts [maybe, I like to make the shortbread into cutouts, so that might do for this year] Fudge Caramels Crisp truffles Chocolate covered raisins [she doesn't like nuts] Pecan Pie Chocolate Pie Yup, I'm a slacker ;(...See Moreshavedmonkey (Harvey in South Fl.)Z10b
