* Want to try dehydrating but don’t want to buy a dehydrator? Try the oven. How to Dehydrate Food Without a Dehydrator « Food Hacks
This site shows you how to use an oven, a toaster oven, a microwave, and the sun. The author even shows you how to make your own dehydrator.
* Garden Notes – Even though the weather is still warm here in So. Cal., the days are gradually getting shorter, which also means that the sun does rise as high in the sky, which means that the plants don’t get as much sunlight even during the day. Last year I gardened all winter long, and frankly, the plants did NOT do very well, except for the lettuce. So this year, I’m not going to do that. I will take the plants out as production decreases and just let the garden rest, except for the lettuce. My zucchini and yellow squash that I planted in the spring is just about done. But the zucchini and squash that I planted about two months ago are now starting to produce. Somehow the aphids got away from me and seemed to be everywhere—spray, spray, spray. I’m using BT, an organic spray for the aphids.
