“Id love to grow enough to can gobs of stuff for winter but just dont have the room.”
If you are serious about canning and have a Farmer’s Market you can go to, go at the end of the last day, the last hour of business. The marketers will practically GIVE stuff away to you, rather than haul it back home.
Good way to get tomatoes and peppers for canning salsa and stewed tomatoes for cheap. ;)
Thanks for the tip!
I’ve never been to a farmer’s market yet.
I’ll have to wander out there someday.
I have 8 tomato plants, a few bells and a jalapeno.
Maybe I can get one batch of salsa out of that.
I don’t know what the deal is with my yellow squash and zucchini. I planted those at the same time I did the corn and beans and they still aren’t up yet. One day was really really hot and I had the lid tight on the Jiffy greenhouse so maybe the seeds got cooked or something.
I’ll give them another week and start over if I need to.
I get zucchini for days but haven’t been able to grow yellow squash for a while now.
