:welcome Don't know about beer drinking gnomes but welcome! I do have a gnome holding a lantern but that's the best I can do. LOL try this place http://www.gnomeoutlet.com/Lance-the-German-Gnome/cid211skuWG608

A couple of years ago I was on a canning forum where there was a running argument about canning cabbage and whether it became sauerkraut after you canned it. I don't think either side ever relented in the least about it. I know there were people on there who canned it and CALLED it...

Her birthday is August...close enough!:lau

I think "duck sprouts" is good. Anything we can't identify in a pond is now "Duck Sprout"! :gig

Will that do? I have no idea who Angela is but what the heck....:gig

Yes, but I thought it was for the DGD's education not mine! lol

I bow to your superior duckweed knowledge since we only had a pond for about 2 years before it turned into a slimy doggie swimming pool and had to be removed. :lol: It's possible that what I thought was duckweed was something else all together or that I remember the plants incorrectly.

Not to mention the fact that I paid $9.95 for this stupid strawberry kit with 5 seeds in it! :gig

There are about a half dozen species of duck weed. I'm not sure if any of them have stems but some are much larger than apple seeds.

Great idea. never heard this before. I guess a ball of newspaper in the bottom might be ok too.

1st and 3rd one looks like Duck Weed. It takes over!

Pretty cute! Thanks.:)

I got an e mail that my Russian Fingerlings were shipped yesterday. :)

My understanding has always been that cabbage gets a really unpleasant tase and texture if it's canned plain.

Everbering do get runners. I'm not sure if they were more or less than June bering but they DO get runners. Also you can mow the plants down after they fruit and remove the "mothers" that causes the "daughters' to become stronger.

I picked up a little kit at TSC that had a pot, soil and strawberry seeds. It was for the GD but then someone else got her one too so I planted it. It only had 5 seeds in it! Last night my neice asked me about planting strawberries from seed and I handed it to her and wished her good luck. :lol:

Call your county extension office and ask what they get for a soil test. It's only $7 here.

You might want to look into Mason bees. They don't produce honey but they do all the pollinating like honey bees do.

My GD grew a great cherry tomato plant in a big pot last summer. I think it was a Sweet 100.
