The strawbees have taken over both beds
(lemmy.world)
This is roughly the harvest every other day. Already have a gallon freezer bag full. No complaints here.
Carrots and peppers were kind of a wash last year so we just let the strawberries run rampant. They're happy as hell and the fruits are have gotten bigger as the plants matured. The left side was clear enough to put beans where the tomato plants used to be. I was planning on skipping tomatoes as well because they got absurdly large and bent their cages, but some of the fallen ones must have seeded because we had 3 little tomato plants shooting up. They're in separate pots now and hopefully that'll be more manageable.
Make some homemade jam. It's pretty easy if you don't do a full canning and will use this up quickly
And if it's too runny for whatever reason you have flavored simple syrup for cocktails ๐
If you have too much of that you can add liquor as a preservative to make your own cordial.
It's funny how many delicious things are methods to save food when you grow too much
Oh that's a great idea.
