just freeze them. (in their skins)...they are only good for cooking once frozen as they go a bit mushy....but great for muffins or banana cake :)

edited to add "skins"

well all rosellas have gone and also she picked up 2 paw paw plants...total of $20... Im feeling like a primary producer hahahaha...that is what we call gardeners (in bulk quantities) over here hahahaha

Today went and bought myself an upright freezer for downstairs....I have so much fruit and similar to freeze like mango and bananas that it is worth it to buy a freezer. The freezer I have is called a chest freezer and with noshelves or dividers etc everything gets all mixed up....so a new one is here ...or will be tomorrow.....LOL

Foxy Lady: I have had such an abundance of rosella fruit that I advertised them for $8 per kilo = 2.2lbs and in the last 3 days have made just under $200....I have a lady down the garden now picking the last of the fruit and I have about 200 rosella plants growning which I will sell for $2.50 each. I also have about 30-40 pawpaw (papaya) plants which Im selling....also for $2.50 each.

Im putting the money earned from my little venture into a money box for Bear my dog...that will pay for his grooming and vetinary injections etc... LOLOL

yesterday had the biggest feed of MUSCAT grapes...this is the best crop I have ever had...have zucchini with heaps of flowers on just hope the bees do their job and fertilize them. Have bananas just about ready to pick and my paw paw trees are bearing a small amount of fruit and hopefully that will change.

Foxy Lady:
Are you talking about those cute little lucky bamboo house plants?
They don't need much at all
A little food now and then and lots of water
What I was talking about earlier was some variety of woody bamboo which is prolific and spreads better than any screen I have ever seen.  But you can't plant it near buildings.  You'll have big trouble.

Rednaz23: There may be something in powdered milk which affects the ph or the potassium or the nitrogen in the soil
I don't think calcium would help tomatoes. They're not bones!  LOL

It's an interesting idea
I'll check it out

件名: perfect tomatoes
Has anyone ever heard about this 'perfect tomato trick'?

To grow near perfect tomatoes you place powdered milk in the hole prior to dropping in the tomato plant. If you grow them with seeds, wait until the tomatoes begin to appear and then push a stick around the plant to create a few holes and then drop powdered milk into the holes. I have been told that something in the powdered milk (the calcium I am assuming) helps the skin of the tomato to grow nearly perfect (also grows redder!?!?).

I don't know if this is true, and can't find much help about it elsewhere, hoping one of you can help.

Thanks!

☼ajtgirl☼:I'm not sure on the chemicals in it but it, causes the roots to rot. We cleared the area and i think replanted a couple of months later.
I'll have a hunt around and find out who makes it and what it's active ingredients are

We have some brush killer we could use but I am reluctant
Is your woody weed killer safe for the water table and surrounding plants?
It doesn't really matter in this case because we had to stomp all over the peonies and creeping phlox and bulbs to get this stuff out.
I have to replant the entire area anyway but how long would it take for a weed killer to kill the weed and still allow new plantings to survive.  I know I didn't get it all

☼ajtgirl☼: We had a problem with bamboo and were able to get rid of it using a product called woody weed killer. Don't know if you have that in the states but it sure takes the hard work out of getting rid of bamboo.

You are quite welcome Foxy
I spent most of the worktime hours digging up bamboo which I unfortunately planted too close to the greenhouse 5 years ago
Darn but those roots are deep and spread like tentacles under the building and the sidewalk.
I am feeling a little sore tonight due to the use of pitchfork and shovel

BerniceC:

Hi Bernice
What you have is an anthurium  They prefer tropical climates and low light...they grow wild in rain forests due to the shade and abundant humidity....but do not over water it in your house.  The lack of humidity somehow makes them need less water in a home...unless you live in a green house.  I repeat, let it dry out slightly between waterings and cut off the dead blooms as soon as they wither. Feed it like any house plant but do not put into direct sunlight as the leaves will burn.  These types of plants prefer to be pot bound. That promotes flowering.
Good luck
