Gardening in a Kilt (Buzz Kidder Canvas)

[Bugbear]

Ah, I am not married and live alone. On the other hand, I don't smoke or drink. Guess I'm free to garden all I want in my kilt.

In another thread, we were talking a bit about growing pineapples. I think I will start growing them again. MMM pineapple marmalade.
** I'm taking the following out of a post of mine in another thread and putting it here so it doesn't get lost.

It might be interesting to put pineapple into marmalade.
I might bring up too, the pineapple top, being used as a cutting, can rot from the base or the end that is being rooted. Also in the center core. I've used a tiny bit of garden dusting sulfer both at the base and the center to combat this tendency. As well as, rooting it in a sharp sand or well draining planting medium. Just in case anyone wants to try it. They can grow inside quite well, but might not ever make a fruit. Interesting house plant though... There are some other tricks to get them to make a pineapple, but it would be a bit difficult to explain here.

* I am not an expert in pineapple growing, and I do not work in a pineapple agrocultural business. Nor do I sell agrocultural products of any sort commercially.

* Picture removed. * That's my decrative scarecrow in the front yard, and a crow lives in a palm tree overlooking that area. He's not very scarey I guess.
