Has this ever happened to you calamondin?
Comments (6)Toni, you hit it right on the nail!!! Your right, just so happens that this particular plant is growing in soiless mix in which the particles of bark are a little to big and there is lots of air space. This is the first and only plant I planted in this batch of soil when I first started to learn how to make it. I know I made it incorrectly, because the particle sizes are too big. All my other soil I made, I used smaller particles of bark which has worked perfect for me. And now that I perfected it, I should repot thsi tree in spring into the perfected soiless that stays moist a little longer than a day at a time...lol All my other plants in this perfected soiless mix can go for a 2-3 days under lots of light which I provide all winter, but this Calamondin tree is in a soil that I have to watch and wet everyday. I suppose to much air getting into the soil. A couple of times I forgot to water, and I think instead of the tree wilting, the leaves just go into shock and dry up hard on the branch because they are thicker older leaves. With this tree, you can never tell if it doesn't have enough water, because it doesn't wilt when too dry like my other trees! Since I have been watching this one more closely, and watering everyday now, I am not loosing anymore leaves. YES!!! See, I guess we can hurt a tree from underwatering too... :-) Thanks alot everyone for all your help and thoughts!...See MoreHas this ever happened to you? - BWB
Comments (2)I've had some weep (the blueberry-black currant from the bottled juice) after they set up, esp. after opening and putting in the fridge. Some rings seem to loosen in the canner or maybe when I was lifting them out, but this is the first time I've *ever* had one come off! The liquid on top was very clear and the grape jelly was set, the clear liquid on the sealed jars pretty much totally filled the headspace which is why I'm thinking it was water? Then again this batch was more grapes, fewer apples, and the apples were really tart. I'm going to have to see if the others are weeping - wouldn't there be some in all of them if that was it?...See MoreHas anything like this happened to you.......
Comments (10)I've gotten email from my own address too. The crafty boogers 'mine' emails forwarded around with all of peoples' email addresses left in the headers. (that's one way). Everybody should delete all of the headers from forwarded emails to help with this single issue. I'm sure there are other ways they get our email addresses also. There are too many people who simply are ignorant of the dangers ON the internet. Use "Blind CC" whenever you can also. They won't show up in the header that way.

Comments (3)Yes, not too long ago and ironically with Kale and Sausage Soup. I had diced the potatoes and added them to the soup and the soup was simmering for at least 40 minutes and the potatoes were still crunchy. I don't know what was going on but I've never had potatoes take this long to cook. We ate the soup with crunchy potatoes because DH would not wait any longer. Michelle...See Moresuero
