Baymule’s 2019 Garden

It needs to be a food grade plastic or stainless steel 55 gallon drum, some material the acid in saurkraut won't destroy. I could see sealing it up with an air lock, one of those bent tubes so gas can escape but air can't get in as long as you keep the water level right. When it stops bubbling it should be ready. You would need to keep it in a fairly cool place. That may not take care of all 60 cabbages but my wife made a cabbage/meatball casserole last night that was pretty darn good. You could freeze some and use for cooking. There are options.

I don't know what I will do with all of it, I may have pigs by then, although not planning on any this year. My freezer(s) are FULL. But if I get requests for pork, I'll go get a couple. Hmmmm…….kale and cabbage finished pork......ought to be good eating?

@baymule but baymule---I really want to see a 55 gallon drum of saurkraut! Also the faces of people who see it sitting in your kitchen

You sure got a lot of nice looking seedlings. Your animals will love the extra's.

YUM! Sauerkraut. I opened a can the other day and enjoyed it with a thick pork chop. Yes, I've made my own and prefer it, but I'm trying to reduce my hoarding of food so that when I move in about 2 months, it'll be less.

@baymule Tx/Idaho. When it tassels I'll shake the pollen and mix it all up. Then next year we'll see what I get!

It could be a new variety called “Texaho” lol

@thistlebloom will probably name hers IdaTex.

We sent seeds to each other, so we will be having a scientific experiment, under strictly uncontrolled techniques of the finest in lopsided corn plant breeding.

Well it does sound like a highly professional experiment. I am curious to see what happens.

 

[baymule]

Me too!

Hahaha! You're too funny... I kinda like the sound of Mulebloom corn.
