It really depends on the fertilizer to be honest. I use those fertilizer spikes for citrus - they work pretty well for me.

I am wondering/hoping if another company will step up and make a PebbleOS based watch with these capabilities.

[–] TheGiantKorean 2 points 2 days ago

Yep. You just kind of eyeball it. I start with the branch I want to graft onto first, then cut the scion and compare it to the branch and just make adjustments as needed.

Not difficult if it's sharp. I use a grafting knife, but a pocket knife works just as well.

Bark grafting may pose a problem since you'd be cutting into the bark of the trunk, but it's easier to do in the spring.

You may be other tools (like a saw) in order to do certain types of grafts.

Yes. I also like Golden Delicious, but def better off of a tree (I feel like pretty much anything is).

Have you had an Opal apple? It's a cross between Golden Delicious and another variety. My current favorite apple.

That's pretty much it!

Check out the whip and tongue graft. Very similar idea to what you described but it's much more secure and I want to say more of the cambium layer is joined together.

I've read this too. It would be really cool to have both apple and pear on the same hawthorn rootstock.

[–] TheGiantKorean 3 points 3 days ago

Glad it's doing better! Yeah, grafting is nuts. It's crazy that most fruit trees are grafted.

She incests on eating them immediately.

[–] TheGiantKorean 5 points 3 days ago

Yes it should. I picked varieties that bloom around the same time, so they should pollinate one another. It's like having 3 separate trees, they're all just connected to the same root stock.

Grafting project (lemmy.world)
 

Our apple tree wasn't doing much of anything (it barely even ever flowered), so I finally cut it down and bark grafted 3 different varieties onto it - Liberty, Ashmead, and Cox Orange Pippin. These should all be able to pollinate one another. We also have a Honeycrisp tree nearby that should benefit from this, too.

 

I've had this guy in a pot for years. We're finally getting some fat juicy lemons off of it!

Easily one of if not the best chocolate ice creamy things I've put in my mouth, including other chocolate ice creams. I made my batch with water so that the chocolate flavor would be more "pure" and added a shot of espresso. It turned out great in my Ninja Creami.

Potato starch noodle recipe: https://www.chinasichuanfood.com/handmade-potato-noodles/

For my chili crisp:

  • 1/2c vegetable oil
  • 1tbsp soy sauce
  • 1tbsp black vinegar
  • 1/2tbsp brown sugar
  • 1tbsp sichuan peppercorns, ground
  • 1tsp ground cumin
  • 1tsp chicken bouillon (or just use salt and some msg)
  • 1tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1tbsp ginger, minced
  • 2tbsp gochugaru
  • 4 chile de arbol, coursely ground (adjust up or down based on how spicy you like it)
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • Note: chopped peanuts are a great addition to this - I am allergic, so I leave them out, but you should consider adding them

Mix together gochugaru, ginger, brown sugar, and spices in a heat proof container. Heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic, cook and stir often until you start to see some color, then strain them out and put them on a paper towel to drain. Add onions to oil and repeat process. Heat oil to 375F or until smoking, then pour into the rest of the ingredients and stir. Add the onion and garlic to it when the mixture has cooled off a bit.

For the main dish:

  • 2tbsp oil drained off of the chili crisp
  • 1tbsp soy sauce
  • 1tbsp black vinegar
  • 1/2tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 to 1/2lb protein of choice
  • Boiled potato starch noodles
  • veggies and chili crisp to garnish

Heat oil over medium high heat. Add your protein and cooked to desired doneness. Add the soy sauce and vinegar and cook til it reduces. Add the noodles and just toss to coat.

We had this with some veggies we had on hand (cucumber and radish) and garnished with cilantro and chili crisp.

 

What else would happen in Heck?

I just threw these together on Sunday with what we had on hand. The wings at the top are honey maple lime, and the ones on the bottom are sambal.

Hey all! I'm the moderator over at [email protected]. Just started BBQing not long ago.

I used Kenji López-Alt's recipe, but did it in my BGE and smoked it a bit. Here's the final product:

When I do this again, I would make two adjustments. One is that I'll cook it to an internal temp of 175F to make it more tender (Kenji's recipe called for 165 which I feel is too low). The other adjustment l'll make is to crisp/puff up the skin a different way. It was too difficult to crisp evenly using the rotisserie, so next time I may pour hot oil over it or take a Searzall to it instead.

Has anyone done this in a campaign? If so, how did you run it - same as ghost possession I'd assume?

For the record, I like "How You Remind Me". Feel free to come at me.

 

Ordered this from a local spot for our Christmas Eve dinner. Crabs, shrimp, crawfish, mussels, lobster, sausage, potatoes, and corn, all in a buttery garlicky spiced sauce. Happy holidays, y'all!
