Not so this time. The bad news has quite out-weighed the good. Stories of flooded garlic fields, rain, rain and more rain, drought in other parts of the country, and panic phone calls from growers who are seeing their beautiful garlic crop dying from some new disease they have never encountered before have dominated my garlic guru personae. It is depressing. Garlic is good, garlic is good for you, garlic heals, garlic makes you strong, so why are all these bad news stories coming this year? Has Mother Nature decided to punish garlic farmers, both the good and bad ones for the greed of a few? One must wonder. Garlic experts know that you count leaves on garlic to judge There are some "Good News" stories, thank goodness, from when garlic is ready to harvest.

  • Garlic and Garlic Scapes
    Garlic and Garlic Scapes Garlic is a plant with a very strong and bitter flavor which has been used for both culinary and medical purposes for hundreds of years. The key medicinal ingredient in garlic is allicin, which is known to have wonderful anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant properties. It is a Central Asian native. Growing info: Garlic is planted in late fall the year before harvesting it. The garlic we planted last October, will be the first thing to sprout in the garden in March. Harvest occurs in July. TIPS: Storage: In a dry cool spot. General Cooking Info: Break cloves apart and smash them between the cutting board and the broad side of Scapes ready to be pulled off the plant your knife. This loosens the peel. Simmer chopped garlic in hot oil for a Garlic Scapes: Scapes are the flowering few seconds before adding other heads of hard-neck garlic. We pull them off so vegetables to fry. Shred garlic into the plant diverts it’s energy into bulb production. soups and stews. Roast it. The scapes have a great fresh garlic flavor. The tender bottoms of the scapes are especially good eating, but all of it can be chopped and used like garlic. They can be run through a food processor to break them down into a paste which can be stored for a very long time in the freezer.

At that time the nursery grew a very different range of crops, ranging from soft fruit, apples, plums and pears, to onions, leeks and all the usual vegetables of the time. He also kept cows and horses to use on the smallholding. The nursery was as is now a spread of over 22acres. The next generation, also called William Robinson, started to improve the size of onions and leeks in particular. This was done as it is still done today by selection. Only the best specimens were allowed to seed. He started to exhibit the results in the local Flower Shows of the time, winning many prizes. Soon other exhibitors wanted to grow the strain and the vegetable business as we know it was born. He called all his large varieties of vegetable by the prefix Mammoth, as we still do today.

  • Obtaining Nitrite from Vegetables Sources by Fermentative Process Using Nitrate-Reducing Bacteria Sthaphylococcus Carnosus and S
    Obtaining nitrite from vegetables sources by fermentative process using nitrate-reducing bacteria Sthaphylococcus carnosus and S. xylosus• María Carolina Rodríguez-Daza a, Diego A. Restrepo-Molina a & Mario Evelio Arias-Zabala b a Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Medellín, Colombia [email protected], [email protected] b Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Medellín, Colombia. [email protected] Received: January 21th, 2019. Received in revised form: June 28th, 2019. Accepted: August 12th, 2019. Abstract Sodium nitrate is an essential food additive widely used in cured meats. The increased unfavorable perceptions about chemicals in foods and their repercussions on health have positioned nitrites as undesirable compounds in meat products. Natural and organic ingredients have taken an important place within the consumer preferences. Here, obtaining nitrite from natural sources was achieved using nitrate-reducing bacteria Staphylococcus carnosus and S. xylosus. Pre-incubation strains into a celery-based medium allowed the stimulation of nitrate reductase activity. The increased values of substrate, the oxygen condition and pH influenced the nitrite generation significantly (p<0.05). The reduction rate from nitrate to nitrite was 50.85%, with a value of 320.2 mg L-1 of nitrite. This method presents characteristics comparable to those traditionally applied in the generation of conventional sodium nitrite leading the food industry to take advantage of fermentation processes to supply needs in meats and supplementary food products. Keywords: sodium nitrite; nitrate; nitrite; nitrate-reductase; Sthapylococcus carnosus; S. xylosus.

New Year and new gardening season comes and my new catalogue goes to you. It is a little shorter than usually - not for shortage of items includable (with pain in heart I striped out many names) but this summer I want to rebuild my bulb shed and it will limit my possibilities to harvest bulbs and to work with them. Last summer was very busy year. I rebuilt one of my greenhouses - it was very nervous process due shortage of workers (three teams were changed), I was forced to dig out all bulbs, to change soil - but now working in it is much more comfortable. I and my wife Guna organized for the first time “Open door days” and we had 18 visitors from Britain, arranged programm including lectures, visits of gardens, museum, nature, Opera etc. All visitors were very satisfied with visit. Sorry, this season we can’t to arrange OPEN DOOR DAYS due my lecture tour in North America and expedition plans. But I’m planning repeat such days in future, too. Last season Mrs. Kristl Walek from Canada (Gardens North – Seeds from the world) in her catalogue revealed the fact that I had been bearing in my mind an idea about a book on bulbs and my experience with them.
