I didn't know about cucamelons until someone on steem suggested I grow them. I'm excited to try them.

Our summers aren't as hot as Florida so just giving them shade and plenty of water is usually fine. I have used frozen bottles a few times on really hot days. Our hutches have removable wooden walls that

It's been a difficult transition. We used to eat a lot of eggs. I hadn't heard of aquafaba but it looks like a great replacement. Thanks for the tip.

I've never tried vinegar for the brine. I was a little concerned about flavor when switching from charcoal to electric but I've been impressed. It still has a good smoke flavor and is so much less work.

The pigs were great. We didn't have to deal with a full size pig. The netting worked pretty well for us. They are very smart and knew how to get out of it. But luckily, they only escaped if they really

We have all of those predators in our area. We have never lost an animal inside the electric fence but have lost a few that escape the fence. I haven't gotten an eye on the coyote yet but I hear them howling

Those look good. I recently developed an egg allergy and I'm having to relearn how to bake without them. Thanks for posting this.

We have found one bagged seed starting mix that works well for making soil blocks. I can't remember the brand off the top of my head, but will look when I get home. I've tried a few different kinds that

Yeah, steem is having some issues today. Even my votes are failing sometimes.

We don't add heat or light during the winter. The birds have been fine without it.

You're welcome. I'll be posting more about gardening as the season picks up.

You're welcome. I can't wait for warmer weather so I can start growing these. The steemit community is great. I'm happy to give something back.

You're welcome. That would be awesome.

I'm kind of in the middle on this. Some herbs definitely have amazing medicinal qualities but I wouldn't try to treat serious medical conditions with herbs alone.

I am getting very excited, and impatient. I have some seeds started indoors and planted a few cool weather seeds outside last weekend.
