Thank you for your video. I have tried a few methods for cooking medlars. My go-to is to just wash them, and then boil with just enough water or sweet red wine to cover them. Then I smash them through a colander with a potato smasher. The skins and seeds stay on one side and the pulp goes through the other. I also went over 225F the first time I made jelly--resulting in some interesting medlar gummy bear product.

I live over in Tooele county from you guys and we’re going to get a couple this spring. We are looking at the NC1 Thompson and the Atwood. Do you think it’s safe to just get the two or should we get a third as a back up?

I had a problem with fungus gnats on fig tree that I have inside and recently read that you can use 1 part Hydrogen Peroxide to 4 parts water and spray the surface of the soil to kill the larva and eggs. That seems to have worked and I gave it a second spray and hopefully I broke the life cycle of the gnats.

I just bought the book by Anne Ralf and I'm so inspired I'm planting 12 trees in my small yard : apples, pears, a persimmon a plum, a medlar kiwis and paw paws. I'm wondering though how much width branch space do 4 apple trees in a hole need?

@@silverhermes I am really excited for you! You are going to have some amazing fruit! I am not sure I completely understand your question, but I plant my trees 18" apart when planting them in the same hole. I then angle them outwards and prune the trees as it they are one tree with one canopy. The goal is to prune them so they are open enough to let light through the entire canopy. The size is determined by your needs and space requirements.

Rubus pentalobus. The lack of fruit is common and is thought to be because of inconspicuous flowers that often don't open wide enough to attract or admit pollinators. The fruit DO taste uniquely delicious 😊

This was very good. Have you ever just made a pile of compost without the pallet structure? What are the benefits of using the wooden enclosure?
@gardenwiseadventures
@gardenwiseadventures 25 күн бұрын
@GreenGranny I composted with just piles on the ground in Southern California for 15 years, and it worked really well. I started using bins when I moved to Utah because I used to have dogs that would get into it. It was easier to train them to stay out of a bin rather than just piles on the ground. The other advantage is that you can build taller piles if you use a structure to contain it. That also helps the decomposition process to speed up.

I watched your video and purchased the pe covers for my flowers and winter crops. They all froze at 29*. Do you know what degrees they say they protect to?
@gardenwiseadventures
@gardenwiseadventures 28 күн бұрын
@cynthiaregalado3345 I am sorry your plants froze! Generally covers only give you protection up one zone temperature wise. That would likely take your temperatures inside the cover up only 10°, so if you have plants under the cover that can't take a frost, then they would die. I only grow plants that can take really cold temperatures under cover over the winter. Most of the brassicas can take temperatures down into the teens, so that is what I grow.

Great video! I ordered 10 seeds from a supplier online a couple months ago, and ive been trying to germinate 5 of them. Unfortunately they havent sprouted yet after a month. I soaked them and i have had them in a baggie with damp paper towel ever since. A couple weeks ago, I scarified them since they are hard and thoight that might speed them up. But now i think theyre just molding. I have 5 more seeds to try. Do you have any tips? I'm up in Ogden and will have them along a fence on the SW corner of the house (if they will grow)

If the 4 inch pot graftlings don't survive why not plant them in a larger pot for a year or two? That way you're effectively giving yourself the one you can't find, to plant in the ground. By the way I'm in New Zealand and as Australians call 'Papaya', Paw Paw it's often used here too. I'm still momentarily thrown but since the 1980s I've known of this U.S. native. Intrepid gardeners (who back then had to import their own) have grown them here.

They are all too old and rotted. You need to harvest in late October / early November. Lay them out in a tray and once bletted just scrape off the base and squeeze the pulp and seeds out. You can then boil this up with water and pass through a sieve to make a smooth paste before sweetening.
