LOL! we had our hands full installing the new fridge, getting things dispositioned into the new unit. The computer crashed, and we’ve been consumed with watching the hearings....so, alas, no new pickles! How bout you?
I will say that my garden is laughing at me. I harvested all those tomatoes, and I just went outside to look at the remnants, and I found two vine ripe cherry tomatoes, and several green tomatoes and new blossoms. Humph.
Have you had experience with okras? I noticed just now that all the limbs have dropped off. I can’t tell if it was natural or if some neighborhood kid thought it was a good idea to take them off. The few pods that I have not picked are still on it, so I’m inclined to think it was natural....but it doesn’t LOOK natural!!!!
Pickle time is over for me. I don’t like to buy cukes from the supermarket anyway. I currently have 7 cases of 12 pint jars of pickles or pickle relish. One case of various pickled squash, zukes, and beans.
Probably a couple of years or more worth.LOL All from homegrown pesticide free produce.
Don’t know much about okra - except I really don’t like to eat it, and I don’t grow it.
Gardens do have a tendency to do their own thing.LOL
I did buy the stuff to make pickles, but my wife suffered a knee injury a few days ago, so life here is in crisis mode. Plus, SIL in hospital w/chest pain, undergoing test round the clock.
We grew okry two years ago, but the plot did not have enough sunny hours, I think. Okry thrives on heat, plant’em here in SE Texas in June. We harvested a few ziplok bags of okry, but not the bumper crop that we expected.
