Waterglassing Eggs
To waterglass eggs using pickling lime, follow these steps: 1. Gather Materials: -Clean, unwashed, farm-fresh eggs (ensure they are not cracked or damaged). -Pickling lime (hydrated lime, also known as calcium hydroxide). -Filtered water. -A clean glass or food-grade plastic container with a lid. 2. Prepare the Solution:' -Measure 1 ounce (about 2 tablespoons) of pickling lime. -Dissolve the pickling lime in 1 quart of filtered water. Stir well to ensure the lime is fully dissolved. 3. Submerge the Eggs: -Carefully place the clean, unwashed eggs into the container. -Pour the lime solution over the eggs until they are fully submerged. Ensure there is at least 2 inches of lime solution above the eggs to keep them covered. 4. Seal and Store: -Seal the container with a lid. -Store the container in a cool, dark place. The eggs can be stored for 12-18 months in this solution. 5. Use the Eggs: -When ready to use, rinse the eggs thoroughly with water to remove the lime solution before cooking.

What are some options for repelling animals from eating my veg
I have come to realize it doesn’t matter every season for me i run into this issue. I have tried so many different ways to keep them away from eating my baby plugs/plants. Is there any other options or alternatives in an organic and clean way to repel the birds/ rabbits etc from eating my plants?

Powdery Mildew
I wanted to share this gardening hack with everyone. Say goodbye to powdery mildew forever! And my favorite part is that the main ingredient is something that is often thrown away without a second thought! https://youtu.be/2QcdfOlbmp0?si=CQhqJHyFKeWfpMjv
