I wonder too @Triffid. And I don't find that family of curly beans necessarily similar on all counts. Some of them seem extremely early and others, like the photo I posted, are quite late. Certainly variation in colors, seeds & most of all maturity. And there are both bush and pole...

Sorry to hear that @jbrobin09. It's been a difficult bean year for me as well. It's good luck you planted Carminat, one of the earlier beans that is really good quality. I know I sent some of them to a fellow SODC member who is really into fresh beans, and she thought it was one of the best...

Yes! That's it! You know your beans @Oxford! I believe I grew the other Aloisia last year.

Maglia Rosa?

Curly beans this year. For the life of me I can only vaguely recall the tag tonight, 'Aloisia Mar....' something. Can't think of it, and google can't either. Whatever the name, it is such a pretty bean. I'll update this post once I look at the tag. 'Karntner Secherslein'

Tomato 'Pink Champagne' has blown my mind with it's production. Given that it's in a pot, and has received the bare minimum of both care and nutrients it really yielding well. In ground this would seem average, but constricted in a pot typically drives the production way down. I couldn't...

I used to not care much about world events and politics. And then I had kids, and all that changed. The future matters to me more than ever now. Very sad my children won't have a world with Charlie Kirk leading the way.

My apologies to any other international network growers, that I may not be correct about the Zonos App, it may just be a Canadian situation. It's possible other countries have different postal arrangements with the US. When I saw that Zonos is Australian based, I made the assumption it...

If I can do it without the photo, I will, I think that's an option. Whatever the case, I'll find a crafty way to make sure the beans get to you @Blue-Jay! I've got a wily mind like that. ;)

I had all the plans in the world to deal with all those tomatoes out there today. As everyone knows, tomatoes are not patient and won't wait until you have time to get to them. I started first by rinsing all the many bottles of seeds that were done fermenting, because those were the most...

I wonder the same thing myself. The app works through AI and apparently it will assess value based on a photo and info it asks you to plug in, it may even ask for your estimate of it's value. That still doesn't address the issue though of how you'd quote someone a price on parcel when your...

Just heartbreaking. 💔

I don't know Marie, but I would guess so. I can't imagine there would be any other decision they'd come to. What she must be going through, she's spent over a decade finding homes for dogs on euthanasia lists, or in remote territories starving, flying them out and rehabbing them when...

I just got news of one of my classmates from scent detection was hurt in a severe dog attack. Oh my gosh, I have never seen so much damage on a human body from a dog like that, legs front and back, both arms and her back. Nothing to the face thank heavens. The back of one of her thighs is...

Yes, I still plan to send it that way, wrapped in paper. I think it's a better shot at success than the other way. I just thought you should know for any international growers you have like me, that none of us will be able to just go to the post office and simply mail a package to you anymore...

Did a little bit of research on this Zonos App and its use. Yikes! Looks very complicated. Whoever owns Zonos is going to make a fortune herding everybody through this app to get anything into the US. You might want to check on your end what tarriffs apply @Blue-Jay , I think Canada put in...

Is she gone somewhere?

So @Blue-Jay some hideously bad news in regards to the tarrif situation. I just found out today that Canada Post no longer has anything to do with duties related to shipping to the US, a new system has replaced the traditional one. Anyone outside the US that wants to ship something to you needs...

Then I guess the question would be, if that's the case, what's the stressor. I don't see what that could be, since both sets got chicken manure as well as adequate water..

Is Graubeige a fresh eating bean or for dry use?
