Treat it with care, I can't remember where I saw it but one just like that the seller had listed for $75!!

Pretty slick looking, bet it works like a charm.

Years ago Safeway got sold on making fresh squeezed OJ in the produce dept. The machine was pretty...

My best friend lives outside of San Diego and he has a Lemon Tree, an orange Tree and a Lime Tree. And I've had the fresh citrus.

I think that the Lemon and Lime are Dwarf Tree Varieties but the...

If they feel pretty heavy you should be alright, however they can turn pithy and dry on the inside if left on the tree too long.

I do hope that they are alright, nothing like fruit fresh from the...

If the Blue Ribbon was for the smallest strawberry I think I'm in the running:roflmao

Mine have been Bonnie Roma Plants also------------ maybe they changed hybrids? Just a thought :shrug:

My strawberry plants are still producing. Since I got back from my ride, I've probably picked 3-4 lbs. Today was only 12 oz and included this one--The weight is in Grams :roflmao:rofl2:

I'm really disappointed with my Roma tomatoes this year. There isn't a fraction of what I had last year. Same supplier so I would 'Presume' it's the same variety. I won't have enough to bother with...

I ride out tomorrow and am leaving my son in charge of watering the lawn, the strawberries and my Roma tomatoes. He did ok last year as far as watering but he didn't pick any strawberries or...

Last year when I was at my best friend's home in El Cajon (which is about 20 miles outside of San Diego) he had attempted to grow some tomatoes in that clay that they call 'soil' and he had tomato...

Nope it wouldn't! But it did work well for Home Gardening :tu

My dad used to plant corn in rows just far enough apart that you could walk between them when they were fully grown (2 ft?) but with three-four seeds per 'hill' and the hills were pretty close...

Thank you! :bow

Ordered some 12 oz bottles to see if I can make and preserve Strawberry Syrup today. They should work in a water bath canner as the seals are made of the same material as Ball...

I probably should post this elsewhere but here's what my little strawberry patch allowed me to make---5 pints of jam to share with family and friends.

I picked another pound of berries...

That's NOT good to hear--307421

After culling and cleaning I have another 1.5 lbs of berries in the freezer. I now have enough to make a batch of jam tomorrow so I'm off to check on my supplies to make sure I have everything I need...

Back in '79 when I was working as a cutter for a mom and pop store I went looking for a better paying job as we had a child on the way. I asked one of Safeway's meat managers if they were hiring and...

Looks like I'll be making Strawberry Jam here in a day or two--

These damn things keep eating at them. I've also found 'Rolly Poly's'...

I put in about 100 miles on the bike today just out riding the back roads as it's really nice today. I stopped by my friend Carolyn's and she was in the back yard with her two small grandsons working...

Old Man Winter just doesn't seem to want to let you poor guys alone! :banghead:

There's a family here that's been raising strawberries for ages. Many a child has been hired to pick (including two...

It's been raining in these parts so I hadn't bothered with my little berry patch but it dried up some yesterday so I did some picking. A few were borderline 'Over Ripe'. Right at 24 oz. I got them...

:hmmm: Interesting--Very Interesting--
