Use more sand in the mix and try to keep them out of the rain.

Remember that that’s a great spot for 2 legged squirrels to help themselves so don’t plant anything that you don’t mind sharing.

Thai curry
Peas and rice
Oil down

Trash happens, you definitely need to be careful about it, but it doesn’t need to be a deal breaker.  It’s all a calculated decision.

Chaya is delicious, grows fast once established.
Katuk tastes like peas.
Both easy to grow where it’s frost free.
Most of the other ones I grow have been mentioned already.

It helps when the soil ph is too high and iron and other micros don’t get absorbed as well as they should. Compost tea and fish juice are my favorite. They keep the 2 legged squirrels away as a plus.

Dr birds cake is a great way to use canned pineapple.

There’s not really any pineapple in Polynesian food, that’s just 1950s tiki bar stuff.

All my fruit trees, they make me feel happy.
The plums in bloom are spectacular.

Surinam cherries, they remind me of my old friends. As a kid we would wander around the neighborhood and pick them and eat ‘em up all summer. Guava is another one, reminds me of one of my childhood house when I was 8. Mango season reminds me of my mom,  my she would go around collecting all the fallen fruit from the trees in all the summer homes around that were always empty that time of year. There would always be 100s of fruit around the house that time of year. She would make it into a year worth of jam and freeze a bunch.

Dragon fruit! The fruit are tasty and the in opened flowers are good pan fried. They taste like asparagus.
