DW said she picked them off the stems frozen and thawed out and the both were tedious and slow. She read about cooking the whole bunch at a time and straining out the stems and seeds, which turned out to be the best for her. She was making medicinal elderberry syrup so it worked better and many...

It is always a good kinda tired when you are harvesting your garden. Take some time to put your feet up and kick back. Your garden is doing so good I’m green with envy.

. DW bought Elderberries from a Craigslist ad last winter and that was how they came. The person had froze the whole clusters and then bagged them in clumps for sale. Not sure if it made the picking easier or not but I can find out and let you all know if you like.

@baymule , boy this years garden is making up for your past misfortunes, our garden started slow , slow, slow it is coming along ok, but when the mini heat wave hit some stuff bolted others started growing better. our tomatoes have not even reached the top of a 5’ cage yet and yours are off the...

That is why I say you be you, and I will be me. I have no problem with others thoughts on the subject. I don’t want others to have hard feelings because I have different ideas about it. Like the wise words of Billy Joel “you may be right , I may be crazy”.

If there wasn’t an election coming up wuhon virus wouldn’t be such a problem. You be you and I’ll be me.

Our tomato patch is struggling so far and I am behind on keeping up with it. If our NYers Produce anything it will be later than usual. Usually they put on tomatoes early not this season.

I hope sentry puts all of his troubles behind him and Lives a long happy life on the ranch.

Bay your garden sure is putting out the produce, I am jealous. Our garden seems to be just taking off.

@digitS' Micro-climates ... the squash are doing just dandy. The cucumbers are in another location and they, and the melons, are struggling. I am having trouble with the melons and cucumbers also

@digitS' , we are growing bodacious sweet corn, a variety you suggested some years back. Not sure if we will get any ears this season or not, maybe just practice Corn growing. The huckleberry shrubs we picked up are called evergreen huckleberry. Part sun to shade grower. Here are pics of the tag.

I have had some pretty bad luck this season so far with a few bright spots sprinkled in. Hope the weather stays on the sunny side for awhile so the garden can get some growing in. We waited An extra 1.5 weeks to plant this year to sort of wait out the cold weather Which made no difference. The...

I think you are right lol, all those on the outside are very strange lol.

Happy Independence Day Carol and all garden friends. Here a picture of a young patriot and his nay nay at the rosarium yesterday.

Great looking ears bay. All the time and effort you have been putting in to improve your soil is paying off I see.

I am glad you have finally kicked all the fluid out of your lungs. Hopefully you regain your health quickly to 100%. Are you going to trap the moles, poison, or use another method to get rid of them.

Congratulations on another perfect grandchild. She is a beautiful baby girl .
