YooperDog Same here on the mushrooms. Ate a ton growing up. My Grandparents were Polish & Czech. It seemed like everything had some mushrooms or mushroom broth in it. I tied to grow a setup in the basement years ago and only got two harvests off of it. I think itβs a little to dry here in Colorado, not enough humidity.
Bob Stehlik deep Polish ties here. Mushrooms were a kitchen staple for all meals. My patch is outside on the edge of a tree line.

Had to pick green beans again. I just picked them four days ago, actually three days because I picked a small batch on Monday. I got 3 3/4 lbs. this morning, needed to get them picked before the heat hits this afternoon. Going to have to harvest some cucumbers and yellow squash in the next couple of days before they get to big.
johnsbrewhouse Have you ever pickled the green beans? Something I want to try to do myself.

YooperDog our raspberry and strawberry patches did great this year. Still picking raspberries. Finally picked our first green beans. Only thing that did really good was cabbage. Normal year I make my kraut first week of October. I think Iβm going to have to do it next week before the heads split. Cucumbers are just starting to form now

RON PARRISH I used ghost peppers before, but I give alot of stuff away and some people didnt like it that hot. Now I dry them and grind them into powder. When I want extra heat, I open a jar and put some in and let them sit in the fridge a couple weeks

kyle I grew some Carolina reapers last year that I dried. Also blend them up with some peach jam and dip pretzels in it or smear on toast. You got me interested in growing horseradish now.

kyle Did you grow the peeper yourself? Iβm wondering if you use gloves when you harvest these hot peppers. I grew some hot peppers a few years ago and the wife harvested them bare handed. She also rubbed the sweat off her face before she realized why her hands were tingling. Needless to say she had me putting her contacts in and taking them out for a couple days afterwards.

Ridley Acres I wear a glove most of the time (when I remember) when picking and processing. Also gotta be careful rinsing the dishes out after with hot water. Have choked myself and the fam a few times.
