Comment on SproutRobot, No More? by faboomama

The eggplant are usually just the regular ones, Thai & Japanese. I grow the latter mostly for the flowers.
I’m in Los Angeles. The problem last year was that we had no rain, it was summer temps for a year and I couldn’t get out to water due to immobility. I don’t have much space to garden in ground, but I usually grown strawberries in pots anyway & I have tons of those.

Hm, that’s a shame about the strawbs. What variety were you trying to grow? They’re usually fairly resilient and should last five years or so…
Painted Lady is a lovely Victorian runner bean that is beautifully ornamental and tastes delicious, and Italian borlotti beans are brilliant, too.
How much space do you have, and what kind of climate are you in?
Also, what aubergine varieties are you growing? I inherited a random set of plants I found on a wall last year that grow yellow then purple – no idea what they are, but they taste great and grew well here.

I usually grow 5 kinds of tomatoes, 2-3 types of cukes, 3 kinds of eggplant, along with various herbs and flowers. It’s rare that I get fancy-pants hybrids. Actually, I’m not sure what to get. This is the first time in decades I haven’t received my seed catalogs by now.
My kids want me to grow more fruit. Definitely trying to find some strawberries again. The plants I got in 2007 have all died out & subsequent plants didn’t last a month.

Hahaha, they do look cool on the plate though, don’t they? I’m not against F1s, it’s just a shame that a lot of people aren’t aware of the myriad of open pollinated, beautiful seed available out there.
What are you most looking forward to growing this year?

We have official seed swaps in my area and swap seeds with neighbors and parents from school all the time. I also have tons of seeds saved in my library. I guess you could say I’m being greedy in wanting the various strains and hybrids. Like, do I really need to grow pink tomatoes and white cucumbers?

Wed, 04 Feb 2015 09:41:33 +0000https://faboomama.wordpress.com/?p=1758#comment-2255You should have a look and see if there’s a community seed swap near you. It always makes me sad when people’s growing is limited by prohibitive prices. There’s a lot more saved seed going than you think. I’ve written about the history of it here: https://wp.me/p5dlyf-16 Happy planting – and thanks for the tip RE: SproutRobot, even if it’s currently inactive!

I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to write about my film. I reread your post at least 4 times and each time it makes smile even more. Thanks and God bless.

For us the experience is more black on black due to our history of colonialism but I was pretty amazed at how much that blackface scene in the movie offended me. It had me thinking about it for days.It sort of gave me an awareness of how limited SK entertainment industry maybe in the understanding of African and African American culture. But overall i enjoyed the movie it is a fun way to relax the brain

Just heard Richardson backing Obama. Now if only Edwards would follow suite.

Comment on Obama’s speech on race and Rev. Wright by fabooj
https://faboomama.wordpress.com/2008/03/18/obamas-speech-on-race-and-rev-wright/#comment-2105
Wed, 19 Mar 2008 17:15:42 +0000https://faboomama.wordpress.com/?p=1517#comment-2105I see the GOP has decided that they were going to exhume the dead horse and try to get it to win a race. I hope that proving that they are the party of racists shows just how irrelevant these people are. Are they sure they want to play that game?
Look at it this way: Whenever a GOP pundit or politician gets quoted as saying something horrendous, the first thing they do is claim that it was “taken out of context”. 99% of the time, that’s a bald-faced lie.
The pundits who are dismissing the speech are charlatans. Within the speech itself, Obama calls them out and they pretend he didn’t say anything. They pick a line and run with it. If anything, they’re actions are removing the mask and showing them for what they are. What they did to Wright, they are doing to Obama’s speech. Only the willfully ignorant will follow them off that cliff.
