Stop in for a cup of coffee

So after many months of drying, shelled the rest of the popcorn from this years harvest. Netted roughly 3 pounds off of just two, 12 ft long rows.

I paid 3.99 for 50 seeds for this stuff after hunting for it for over 20 years. Only one or two companies sell it as it’s considered a “rare” seed due to non-gmo and hard to shell, most commercial processors are too large for these tiny seeds. But I’ve already nearly sold out of 6 ounce trial bags.

Spent the morning cleaning a new spot, aiming to upscale drastically. Got enough room for about 24 rows, 75-100 feet long.

Strawberry popcorn. Now you have enough seed for more.

That’s the plan. I got these little Mylar bags I just finished sealing up, roughly 100 seeds per pouch. Put a couple of them in the bottom of the freezer and a couple more in the pantry. We’ll see which ones germinate come spring.
 
Super rare Schwann

After struggling with cutting copper tubing yesterday with a substandard Menards cutter, I just ordered a new Eastman cutter. I sold them on the truck for decades but didn't save a big one back for myself. I do have a Eastman mini cutter that needs a new wheel. Let's put it this way, i could have done a better job with a hammer and chisel. :lol: :lol: Here's an example where cheap **** doesn't compare. @RustyRatRod

I remember my father fixing a copper water pipe and trying to solder it when it would drip water down the pipe and was no way it would get hot enough to get the pipe soldered together. He would stuff bread up the pipe to hold back the dripping water long enough to get the solder to stick. Worked good and the bread would melt in the water.
