First flower is garlic. Second looks like Jimpson. View Quote Correct on both counts! I harvested almost all my garlic mid-July, but I left some of the scapes on a few bulbs until they produced flowers/bulbettes as in the picture in the OP. I ate the scapes I did cut off. The second flower is indeed Jimsonweed aka Datura stramonium. It's the source of medical Atropine, Hyoscyamine and Scopolamine. I have 2 potted ones on my deck. Moonie, the rooster, ate some of the leaves the other day because I forgot that they were there. He was very quiet for the rest of the evening. I would have had more plants but he ate a half-dozen week-old seedlings in the spring. They are difficult to germinate. The plants really took off in the last few weeks and I have several prickly seed pods. Picture from the Wiki link: |

Those leaves are a Hallucinogen if smoked. It was popular a few years ago kids in town were getting high and freaking out getting arrested. That shit grows like weeds now everywhere, invasive species

nice cock View Quote I take good care of my cock. I didn't want to hatch any chicks last year but my wife and kids insisted. They tried two eggs but only one hatched--and of course it was a rooster (or cockerel to be exact). I had two flocks and two roosters already so he's the odd man out. He just turned a year old so now he is officially a rooster. My wife said maybe it would be better if I killed him and I told her she's welcome to kill it herself as I didn't want him in the first place and I'm not doing her dirty work for her.

I'm guessing he replied without reading the rest of the thread. I was hoping for funny answers when I posted that. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

what's the deal with the comb? do they fall off? do you have to remove them for some reason? was that traumatically removed?

It's still very much attached.. I was sneaky in that I wrapped a paper towel around him so you couldn't see the feathers well. You can see his ear and part of his waddle in the first picture. The comb can get injured in cock fights and in the winter they can lose some of it from frostbite, but it's otherwise meant to stay attached. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

So, does he stay outside all winter or do you have some type of warming house for him?

Goddam, I miss Okra. They don't grow it here. If you can grow it in NH, perhaps I can give it a try. If the freaking sun will ever shine ;)
Thanks for the pics. |

At least down here, they do fine on their own in the winter. We do give them a flat roost so their "fingers" don't freeze. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

We do give them a flat roost so their "fingers" don't freeze. I have a cage for him in the unheard garage, but he spent the daytimes outdoors all winter. If it gets really cold then they simply ball up and cover their feet/fingers. The key is giving them a dry roost to sit on as you point out. Dry + cold = no problem. That's why I had the log for him to sit on. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

View Quote This is the second year I've grown them. I use 4 gallon pots in a sunny location. I actually started a little late this year and it's still going well. I'll never grow it as well as they do in the South, but I can at least get fresh okra which was the goal. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Seems I recall stories of people harvesting the seeds and then chewing on a mouthful. As for Okra, it's a relative of the Hibiscus. Beautiful bloom. I try to get my wife to let me plant them in the flower beds to conserve garden space for other stuff but she won't agree. Says that's just too redneck/white trash for our neighborhood. |

#1 is hillary's anal sex toy. The first flower is an onion. Not onion. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile It does look a bit like a walking onion, though. Obviously its garlic, but the two are so closely related, I think one could get a pass for mistaking it for the other. |

The entire plant contains the alkaloids, but they are more concentrated in the seeds. The leaves can be dried and smoked. The Atropine and Scopolamine, in smaller amounts, have several therapeutic uses including the treatment of asthma as they dilate the bronchioles. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
