Covered my chook shed, and climbed most of the trees I'd say about 20 metre by 10 area, They need alot of water, and they love to climb

mine found every single plant I put chicken wire around and absolutely took over, i wound up having to hack off a couple of sections of the patch just so I could actually mow properly. A week later and a day of rain and new vines have come back. Sturdy bastards. I'm jealous of your variety, I put a lot of different seeds in the ground but only the qld blues wound up giving any fruit

Easy garden chat: If any of you have old/decommissioned septic tanks in your backyard do yourself a favor and plant a passionfruit vine within a meter or two of it. You'll be hauling out a solid wheelie bin of passion fruits a year. Probably grow just as well with constant fertilizing. We planted one in Perth for laughs and it grew really slow for a year or two, then it must have hit the ancient tank and just exploded. Completely covered the pergola and needed aggressive pruning a few times a year. After while we got so sick of fresh and preserved fruit we'd just hand over $30 worth to the neighbors on the reg.

Ordered a 6 pack each of pint mason jars and silicone airlock lids, so I can start loving about with fermented sauces First off will be a lacto fermented ketchup and tbh I'm keen to see the outcome Would love to have a crack at my own kimchi or miso paste too Also got my first coffee subscription delivery, basically around this time once a month a kilo of small batch roaster coffee shows up from a different roaster through this subscription mob. This one is P nice, delicate flavours and tasty Gonna regret it later when I can't sleep lmao

Without any knowledge on the subject I'd expect they serve similar/better food (or at least quantities) in our prisons. Also it shouldn't cost a commercial kitchen more than $10 to make decent food if they made it at cost without any profit margin and oh yeah OK I see what's going on.

Just saw the tail end of the latest covid presser and the news isn't good. A worrying amount of the 90ish people currently in intensive care are in their 30s. Young uns need to start taking this more seriously as the community transmission rate climbs.

The people in mandatory quarantine in the NT are being billed for their stay, so I hope they're getting better food than those at the Crowne in Melbourne. I remember seeing a prison menu a couple of years back. The major complaint was that a lot of the food was carb heavy and that only a small amount of milk was provided but there was at least some variety even if it wasn't especially exciting food.

Eh, that food looks fine. It's not presented very nicely, and could use some more peas, but I doubt it was "stone cold" given the condensation visible on the containers. I mean, it's quarantine. It's 14 (?) days. You don't have to do any meal prep. What sort of luxury lives are they leading that grilled chicken breast, roast pumpkin, mashed sweet potato, and peas are beneath them?

I was paying about 45-50 bucks a kilo to pick up beans when I was working up in Brookvale from the local roaster, iirc it was $48 for a kilo of their house blend. same with my Toowoomba roaster. 50 bucks a kilo delivered is loving solid pricing. They offer a choice of filter or espresso depending on what you have, I do a strong aeropress batch so went with filter strength. This month's is a single origin, it's P tasty

They do a few coffee of the month type deals in addition to their regular line up, and they're very reasonably prices for speciality coffee.

A pumpkin is a cultivar of winter squash that is round with smooth, slightly ribbed skin, and most often deep yellow to orange in coloration. The thick shell contains the seeds and pulp.

They do as long as the branches etc they climb can, you'd be surprised One thing that amused me was the butternut pumpkins went from being little chodes to huge Dong's when growing hanging.

It's now covered over by an extension to the house. Inaccessible to passionfruit. Bummer.
