Buenos días nostriches... are we having fun yet? Bitcoiners enjoy the ride and be humble. Don't forget to get some nature. Pura vida🤙 #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Yesterday harvesting "Jamaica" as the Mexicans call it or " "Roselle" as the Aussies know it. The plant is an Indian Sorrel aka as a part of the Hibicus family. The flower calyces are taken after flowering and then you break off the calyces from the seed pods and leave both to dry out. You can make a very popular refreshing drink or jam from brew ing the calyces. The used calyces from brewing can be fried in butter, garlic and salt for a great snack or condiment as well. The leaves of the plant are also edible if you like salads I just learned yesterday from another bitcoiner that you can puncture the seed pods and boil to make the gelatin for jam instead of using pectin. Sweetened with agave, honey or stevia if you don't want the sugar spike or just straight as a refreshing tonic. I love this stuff cause it's medincinal properties are good for pancreas and anti inflammatory which is always good for arthritis. Have a great week, PV #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Buenos dias nostriches... All fired up for a great weekend LFG and maybe get some nature... PV🤙

Finally getting a linseed, mineral oil 1st coat on rammed earth patio. Heating up to thin it better for absorption. Will dry probably a darker brick color like terracotta clay. Probably will need at least 2 coats for exterior. Interiors may take even more for a polished finish.

Buenos días nostriches... Here's a Hibiscus with Loofa (yellow flower) wrapped around it. We use the red calyces (outer part of flower) brew them to make a refreshing cold or hot drink. #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

The flowers begining on the hibiscus (indian- sorrel) which are used to make a very popular Mexican red tea, "Jamaica" brewed with water, great for pancreas. Aka celestial seasons "red zinger". #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Buenos días nostriches... Been so busy while I remembered to take photos I never edited publish them. The latest patio project has its final cap coat with some color and now to let fully dry out for a week or more before oiling it up. The final color after oil will probably be between the wet and dry look. Have a great hump day. Today I'm 65 and still alive, saludos 🤙 #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Buenos días nostriches... Been busy with many chores n finishing up the ramming of earthen patio. Now to patch a few places level it out and prep for final coats of lime wash n silt. Then probably sealing with vegetable oil... Have an awesome day🤙 #coffechain #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Buenos días nostriches... Woke to a beautiful cool foggy morning. Very unusual weather for this time of year. No rainy season yet but still getting water. So much for global warming 🤣 Have an awesome week wherever you be🤙 #coffechain #homesteading #permaculture #gardening

Buenos días nostriches... These branches were cut and made into a fence 3 years ago. Now as I water plants along the fence they have come back to life. Some branches dont even touch the ground but will still flower. Amazes me how plants and animals push to survive and thrive here in the desert. Have a great week🤙 #homesteading #permaculture #gardening #coffechain

2 more front buckets of earth, pushed around a bit with the arm but very tricky to operate around so many obstacles... Now for the fun part, off with the shoes, kick and rake the earth level and mix with Calcium Hydrate (lime). Water and pack🤙 #homesteading #permaculture #construction
