You can buy saffron at the store and you make yellow rice with it. You crush it before using it.

It's a spice, great for fish, rice and in baked goods. It's actually very well-known and popular, just not so much in the United States. It's also famously expensive, because you have to hand-pick it like this and the labor cost really adds up.

I have a question? I planted two Apple trees last Fall. Mid Summer one of the trees leaves started to curl and turn brown and some of them had little pin holes in them. The shop I bought them from said to use BT spray. I had asked specifically for something Organic. i bought the BT spray , but when I got it I read the back and didn't want to use it. Can you give me some recommendations? I plan on putting a Guild around it. Thank you.
@AxeAndRootHomestead5 күн бұрын
Hi! That’s a good question! Little holes are often caused by caterpillars or worms eating the foliage. The brown and curling leaves could certainly be a result of that, or of a type of blight. You might reach out to your county extension office as location and environmental factors are important when diagnosing these things. As for BT, I wouldn’t spray it either. Guilds, cleaning up fallen fruit, apple maggot and coddling moth traps, attracting birds, and foliar sprays to build up the tree’s immune system are all worth the effort, in my opinion. Check out The Holistic Orchard by Michael Phillips. It’s my favorite.

Love that! Studies have shown that when you add organic matter and soil (and compost) to even sand or clay, decomposers and mychorrizae move in, creating soil where there wasn’t any before. Dirt to Soil by Gabe Brown is an incredible book on this.
