                        @dennyo I like national pickeling cucumbers 🥒. They seem to stay more crisp. Also to me they have a better flavor even raw. And I eat alot of raw cucumbers. Again just my opinion.

                              lkrfletcher I feel your pain, I definitely would have let at least of few expletives fly. To add insult to injury, you have to clean it up, buy new jars and new shelving.

                                lkrfletcher Sorry you had that happen. I’ve been there before. It is so easy to underestimate the total weights as you accumulate jars. I began to realize it when I would put 12 filled quarts back into the box the jars came in. First time I picked one up I started to build new shelves.

                                Keep in mind that a gallon, with jars, will weigh around 15 pounds or so.

                                I built a separate shelving unit for canning jars and cook books. The weight is way more than normal shelfing could take.

                                        GWG8541 I harvested my garlic yesterday, 6/16. It’s been really hot here in Colorado and the bottom 1/3 of the leaves were turning brown. I plant it in late September and usually harvest it around Father’s Day but it was starting to lay down from the heat. This year we only planted 9 varieties, in years past we have planted as many as 20+ varieties.Garlic 2021 (3).jpg Garlic 2021 (4).jpgGarlic 2021 (6).jpg
