Ante ---------- What do your pomegranates taste like? Good sour/sweet or mild. I just found out that varieties for south Florida have been developed but they have a very mild taste. Not for me. I like one that bites back!

And your olive trees look very healthy. I'm still using the olive oil you sent me and it has a very good taste. Very different from what we normally get here.

Hey Dan,
most of local pomegrantes are sour-sweet with biting intention:ha:
The once that arent in cultivation are smaller and totaly sour, full with C vitamin, very healthy but U need ho have a good stomac :).
Im glad U like our Oil, we will have First Press oil again this Saturday, unfortunelly there are still some stupid shipping restriction for US packages so I still cant shipp any to all my friends there.

Not much. Many areas were hit with fires and drought.

My winter garden is in full swing but harvesting is low. We still are getting Jalepenos, Bell Peppers, Watermelons, a few bananas and some citrus.

What's coming?

Turnips, spinach, collards, mustard, yellow onions, purple onions, broccolli, cauliflower, cabbage, snow peas, sugar snaps and english peas.

Charles -------- Do you like hot peppers?

Let me send you one (only one is ready right now) along with some Black Jungle Butter Bean seeds. I would like to know what you think of the Bih Jolokia. And believe me --- one is enough for any meal!!!:2709::2709::2709::2709::2709::2709:

Take note of the flaming smilies. Eat ice cream for dessert.

PM me.

Nice.One of those bags makes how much oil ?

Dalmatiansoap 10-29-2011 01:18 PM

Re: What did you harvest today (other plants)?
 
I ll know better in 2-3 hrs when I collect the Oil from the Mill but its about 14-18%, so a full bag can get a gallon of Oil in good season

Thanks. Now does the oil need to be processed in any way other than milling ?Can I just go squeeze:lurk: an olive and have olive oil ?

Re: What did you harvest today (other plants)?
 
No. U ll get a sort of pomace, than U have to separate Oil from water and waste. Usualy with centifugal forces in modern Mills.

That is fine by me. Do you still have my address if not I'll PM. Make sure you send me your preferred method of consumption. The way you described it I don't think you just bite a big chunk out of it. LOL I love Thai food. Sounds like it may fit in. Unfortunately I've never tried cooking that cuisine.

THE BJBB sounds like a winner too. I was planning on getting up with you about that one. I'll have to give you a call one day and talk about seed saving. I know you can't do it with some but I'd like to do some that I can. The BJBB is one.

Many thanks,
