Have you ever bought/not bought a brug because of the name?
Comments (20)Ryan lol. I do believe Eddie says that of himself ha ha The reason the phanomenal is giving you all such a hard time is because the German way is spelled phänomenal. Meaning unbelievable, outstanding, fabulous, and of course.... :phenomenal lol I have so many seedlings I like to find out WHAT THEIR names are....before I call them brainless Lucy 1...forgeful Lucy 2....confused Lucy 3...and so on lol Lucy...See MoreToo many Annie's salsa threads! But here's 1 more...
Comments (30)Thank you Linda Lou, I knew minced was small, diced was cubes but didn't know size (I think I've seen "1/4" dice" but wouldn't know if that was on the large or the small side), and "roughly chopped" would be really big, but I don't know what "chopped" meant. I will cut onions and peppers to app. 1/4", Annie said she quarters tomatoes to make it chunkier so still want to know her consistency. Lisa, yes I do know 16 oz = 1 C fluid. I just assumed that paste should not exceed sauce, and it's easier to pour 4 oz out of a sauce can (to get 12 oz of sauce to equal the paste) than to spoon paste out (unless I measure it in Tbsp, then thoroughly scrape the spoon out). I'm not even sure how much I scraped out of the 12 oz can. But that brings up something I never thought of - the 12oz can is sold by weight, not volume, and I assume the recipe is referring to volume? So who knows how much I *really* got out of the 12 oz weight can? Of course, I could measure it next time, but if 12 (or 16) oz volume comes out to weigh more b/c paste is so dense, then I assume that wouldn't be safe either, the salsa would be too thick. Now I'm *really* confused. I did find on the Canadian Fight Bac website "cooked type (salsa) and not processed, it can be refrigerated for one month." - now, I did process these, opened 2 jars (1 hot, 1 medium) yesterday to taste and will use today at a BBQ. If I open the others and stir to oxygenate, will they last 2 weeks to a month? Or should I freeze them? http://www.canfightbac.org/cpcfse/en/cookwell/ask/where_how/#1684...See MoreHow Many Could I Plant Here?
Comments (5)pack them all in .... you can move them in a few years .... whoever came up with the idea of a perfect design .. and never having to move a plant again.. was confused about the reality of a garden .... 3 to 5 feet sounds about right... but for something to fill the 5 foot spacing.. is going to take 3 to 5 to 7 years .... you could have a whole bunch of smaller.. easy to move plants growing like weeds for a few years .. and then move them out when the monsters get to size ... NEVER move the monster ... i use irrigation tape.. with drippers at 12 inch spacing ..... minis are set 2 feet apart .... small and small/med... 3 feet .... 4 feet for bigger meds.. and the monsters are 5 foot on center.. and that isnt even enough.. 10 years down the line .... do you have grass??? what a waste.. lol .. there is always room for new beds .... ken...See MoreHow many people in this forum sell some of their tomatoes?
Comments (22)I have a few extra - maybe a few hundred - and will STOP complaining about tending to them after timmy's photo - WOW. I also was going to have a front yard sale, maybe in April, for winter sown flowers and indoor started tomatoes and peppers. To find homes for some near leggy seedlings, I posted an ad on Craig's List and have sold 20 plants in a few days. Although I plan to increase the price for my front yard sale, I won't cry if the tomatoes go early. I also started the rarer kinds of tomatoes and peppers that can't be found at the stores. Response has been good. I also agree that driving around to deliver plants becomes cumbersome. Recouping my gardening costs is my only goal and I also donate about half of what I grow....See Morekingd Z6A michigan
