It's likely that the pot you're using was a double boiler insert, as I have one just like it. Thus, no handles! That pot would be set inside a slightly larger one for melting chocolate squares, etc.

I always freeze the liquids left after boiling vegetables and use them later for soups and gravies. The vitamins from the veggies are in that water, so it's a shame to dump them out. You can turn them into vegetable broth and add a bouillon cube to them for extra flavor.

Yes. At those temps, starting and letting it run every 4 hours makes a huge difference. It also needs to run for at least 20 minutes to recharge the battery (gets low from the cold) and get the engine oil back to normal thinness.

Thanks for the video! I haven't grown green beans in 20+ years. My cowpeas/purple hull black eyes are doing great even though didnt use innoculant. But my organic Tendergreen bush beans did ok, but where rather pale green, then got leaf spot😢. I wonder if using anti bacterial dish soap mixture would work? Not from Rare Seeds. Guess pig gets some greens for lunch. I wonder if watering them everyday is too much in Florida summer.

Suggestion for adding a raised bed in a lawn area. I’ve done the following many times with great results. After determining where I’m going to put the raised bed, I dig the area where the bed edges will be only to make the bed level. I then put down a couple layers of carboard with all plastic materials removed. I then fill the bed with the soil median and plant as desired. I seldom till soil as it won’t get rid of seeds. But the carboard will smother out existing plants and prevent seeds from germinating until the carboard rots away and by that time, your generally in good shape.
