wdaly I may have let a few profane words slip out. Good thing the grandkids weren’t there. 🤬 I’ve nearly gotten over it now. I was about a month ago. At least I didn’t have broken glass and juice to clean up.
Jonesy Would have been dog treats in my house, at least someone would be happy.

Do you all find one strain of cukes better to use for dills than an other?
I love the chrisp snap of a spicy dill. I make bread and butters.@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. -

Shelf collapsed in my cabinet.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.

Shelf collapsed in my cabinet.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.
Bob Stehlik Just now catching up with you guys. Dug the garlic today. Some was a little small so will plant them this fall. Good quantity though.

Looks good. I planted garlic for the first time this year. Still trying to figure out when they will be ready to harvest. Watched some videos and I think they are almost there. I pulled one and it seems pretty small so going to give them some more time. Would be nice to have a steady supply of garlic around. -

wdaly Looking good. I finished cleaning, trimming & bagging mine on Sunday. I bought some mesh bags and we hang them under the stairs to the basement. Most hold up very well.
