I have three half-gallon jars of chilis fermenting. I'd like to make a bunch of different hot sauces. Anyone have any good recipes? One jar cayenne, one is red jalapeno and the other is green jalapeno.

Weirdly dinky/odd shaped harvest of these white potatoes, compared to the reds. Not sure these are worth saving for seed. Might just eat them and find another variety for the spring.

I harvested my Norland red potatoes a bit early, as my plan is to use them as seed potatoes in the spring. This was the result of two plants sown in the beginning of May. Plenty to fill a 6x4" raised bed next year.

Getting back into growing mushrooms after a but of a hiatus. Shiitake 3782 on sterilized oats.

The two tomato plants I grew from cuttings are looking great now. They actually look greener and bushier than the mother plant at this point.

I tried my hand at making English muffins this afternoon. Not sure how they taste (yet) but they look the part :)

Two years ago I built a bed on the shady side of my house to grow wine cap mushrooms on wood chips and pellets. Unfortunately all it ever grew was unidentified wild mushrooms, but it did turn all the wood into some nice dark black soil.

Since wine caps don't want to play nice, I dug it out and decided to try my hand at oyster mushrooms on straw. I layered ~16 lbs of sawdust spawn on to two bales of straw. Then I took a shower, because it's 90F and also I'm allergic to straw 🤧

Processing down this year's crop of Fresno chilis into hot sauce. They've been fermenting since August. 🌶️

We have wild strawberries growing on the lawn, but I wanted to see if I could get better fruits by cultivating them, so I transplanted one to the Hügel. We’ll see.

Considering they weren't even visible until yesterday, these wine caps are massive. The stipes are crazy. The big one's nearly as thick as my wrist. They got chewed on a little by squirrels, but no insect damage. 👍

I'm going to sautee some up later and give them a taste.

Something invited itself to my Hügel, by way of the kitchen compost I'd guess. What is it? Some kind of squash/melon?

Update on the Hügelkultur bed:

Last year when I built the original mount I seeded it with king stropharia (AKA "wine cap") spawn but I only got a solitary mushroom that froze before it could mature. When I added the extension this spring I inoculated the new end as well. I just went out and pushed aside the straw mulch to see how it's doing, and it appears to be going strong on both ends. Hopefully that means a real crop this fall 🤞
