Tom<p>Rhubarb and peas. I probably should put some cardboard down around the rhubarb now that it's probably all up from wherever it's going to come up to cover up some of that grass. The peas are slowly getting taller, need to put some twine down from the trellis next to them.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GrowYourOwn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GrowYourOwn</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/VegetableGardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VegetableGardening</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/peas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>peas</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/rhubarb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rhubarb</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>garden</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/April14" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>April14</span></a></p>

@Likewise Great advice ! I am down that road too: low carb chocoholic (now moving on to cocoa nibs) with 6 hours of feed window 5 days a week.

I am 58 years old and insulin resistant. The above nutritional changes plus 40 min of strenght/cardio training every other day, have given me a new lease on life.

My own two bits: walnuts, pecanas, macadamias and avocado provide a lot of healty fats and Omega3/6 balance. When taken at the end of the feeding window, they make the 18 hr fast a piece of... err meatpie 🙄 !

I also make my own cannabinoid extracts. Non psychotropic ones such as cannabinol CBN (main CB2 receptor agonist) and CBD from flower (no hemp) help regulate blood sugar, stabilize mood and protect my liver, spleen colon and pancreas.

Gladly surprised to find your testimony as health does not seem to be a priority for mastodon people...

@cobalt123 So yeah, proper drying and storage are crucial with peanuts. I actually picked up a proper food dryer a few months back, so I'll be using that to dry them (and will clean everything thoroughly afterwards).

"This video guides viewers through the process of harvesting and curing peanuts. The presenter demonstrates how to identify mature peanuts, dig them up, and prepare them for drying. They also discuss the importance of proper storage to prevent mold and rancidity."

Got frost?

Since it might freeze tonight I put the lids on the plastic jars that are protecting these lettuce transplants. The jars help protect the small plants from being battered by the wind and I like to think they might help keep slugs off. The jars originally had mixed nuts and I cut the bottoms off.

Also in the pic are Walla Walla onions that were started from seed last fall and overwintered in the greenhouse before being transplanted into this raised bed.
