Yardlong (Asparagus) Bean

About Yardlong Beans The yardlong bean or cowpea, also known as the snake bean, encompasses a variety of cowpea types. It’s grown in tropical and subtropical regions to consume young bean pods as a substitute for green beans. This nutritious bean is a rich protein, fibre, and micronutrient source. The vines are abundant and adorned with beautiful flowers that attract bees and other summer…

Oab not even gonna comment on Kluer trying to kiss Plawan he’s just gonna get his man out of there

THE DRAMATIC FALL OF THE WHALE PLUSHIE SFJFJDD

I’ve said it before but I do not like Kluer. Too much Nice Guy TM energy for me. Just bc ppl smile and tell you all the things you want to hear does not mean they are good to be around

DID OAB JUST PULL HIS BACK SHFJF IM CHOKING

Plawan being upset about Khaosuay but still trying to be understanding towards Oab :(

Did Plawan get this muscle metaphor from JJ i bet he got this metaphor from JJ

Oh no they’re actually getting together before Plawan tells Oab about Methas OH THIS IS GONNA HURT

Plawan’s convenient odinsleep when Kluer tries to confess… me tbh

“Do you think Kluer will be really hurt?” *cuts to Kluer sobbing his heart out* don’t worry he’s a trooper i think he’ll be fine

I think this is my fave OabPlawan love scene so far, it’s so well choreographed and the framing is great… that pants drop was fantastic. Too bad it’s such a short scene

Methas’ fucking pouty face when he’s asking JJ to hold his hand

Ooooh JJ’s trying to draw a line, he’s caught feelings

HE CAN’T MEET METHAS EYES HE’S CAUGHT FEELINGS

oh my GOD THANK YOU DIRECTOR CINEMATOGRAPHER AND EDITING TEAM FOR THAT BEAUTIFUL SHOT OF METHAS HAND ON JJ’S ARM

Even though I don’t care for Kluer, I don’t blame him if he snaps tbh. The most absurd part of this competition is making your right hand man jump through all these hoops to prove himself over complete strangers. Like if Kluer had the money in the first place, Chef could’ve just sold him the restaurant and none of this drama would’ve gone down

I wanted to ask (since you seem like you know alot about it) if there are any good Thai recipes you know of for beginners! I want to find some good Thai food but unfortunately in my area we don't have a lot of options for that, so I was curious if you happened to know of some :D

(BTW no requirement at all for you to reply I was just curious haha!)

here is my to-go recipe for when i'm lazy

Long bean stir fried

• Ingredients

1. Yardlong beans 3-4 strings

2. Garlic

3. Your meat of choice (i use sliced pork)

4. Soy sauce (any works fine but i recommend the golden mountain one with the green cap)

5. Oyster sauce

6. Sugar

7. MSG (Optional)

8. Bird's eye chilli (Optional)

• How to make

1. Mince and crush garlics to get the aroma out

2. If you're using chillis crush them with the garlics preferably in a mortar if you have one

3. Cut your beans into 1-2 inches

4. Put on low heat wait until oil is hot then pour minced garlics (and chillis) into a pan, keep stiring don't let it burn

5. Once you smell the aroma take your meat into the pan you can turn up the heat if you want

6. Wait until the meat is almost cooked then pour the beans

7. Seasoning your food with soy sauce, oyster sauce, one teaspoon of sugar, and a little bit of msg (i don't measure my sauce so you just have to guess usually if the sauce coats all of the ingredients then that enough but put oyster sauce more than the soy sauce)

8. Cook until the beans shift color to be more green and soft then you're done! Eat it with white rice

You could do the same thing but without beans and add chilli and basil and more sugar then now it's a basil stir fried!

“and a yardlong iron bolt caught the queen’s dragon in the right eye. (…) Whether Rhaenys Targaryen outlived her dragon remains a matter of dispute.”

“Meleys was dead, broken by the fall and ripped to pieces upon the ground. (…) A body believed to be Rhaenys Targaryen was later found beside the carcass of her dragon, but it was so blackened that no one could be sure it was her.”

“She had a small black kitten she called Balerion, did you know? I always wondered what happened to him. Rhaenys liked to pretend he was the true Balerion, the Black Dread of old, but I imagine the Lannisters taught her the difference between a kitten and a dragon quick enough, the day they broke down her door.”

I feel like I may be accidentally selecting for hulls on my field peas that are harder to see.

A lot of cultivars of Vigna unguiculata* have hulls that turn purple when they're mature, but before they start to dry out. Purple hull and pink eyed peas are two common varieties like that, and it makes them real easy to spot for harvesting. Other kinds stay green, or maybe just go a little paler/yellower when they're ready, and those you have to hunt for among the leaves.

I don't know what varieties I started out with, but there's at least two normal-sized kinds in the mix, and hull color varies among them both. I never get every pod picked at the optimal time, but the ones I miss dry well on the vine, so I just pick them when I do find them, and put those dried bean in a jar to plant next year. Which means, as far as my unnatural selection, that the ones that don't turn a convenient color when they're ready have an advantage. They're more likely to get 'selected' for propagation (i.e. forgotten & then found later), as long as they produce well enough to be statistically significant in the seed jar.

Beans are pretty stable over the planting generations, as they mostly pollinate themselves, but they do produce crop-outs from time to time (like my exciting new fat variety - I'll do a post about them soon), so the color may drift over time. I've been growing these from my own saved seeds for ~10 years, and at least some of them are still purple (maybe half? maybe less), but then I don't really know what I started with, so idk if they've changed. I could start taking more notes, I guess.

*This species includes all the field peas, cowpeas, black eyed, purple hull, lady peas, Sea Island red peas, and a hundred other cultivars of similar beans. I call all those field peas, as a general term. Yardlong beans are also in this species, and some other Asian varieties I'm not as familiar with. Crowder peas, too.

Now, some people (and google) seem to think that crowder peas and field peas are the same thing, and they're wrong. Similar, yes. Closely related, yes. Cooked about the same, also yes. A crowder pea might even be considered a type of field pea, but not every field pea is a crowder. They crowd together in the pod, see, and it changes the shape of the pea, leaving an indent where the next one pushed up against it.

Proper crowder peas:

Jet Set Trio Stocking Gifts

Tomi Chōten

An expensive Christmas ornament purchased by Karada. The guy couldn't really think of anything to give Tomi, so he improvised. ...Oh well, at least he tried.

A goodie bag made by Luis, full of all of Tomi's favorite treats that he usually orders from the chef's restaurant. At the bottom is a bill that Tomi is expected to pay for the treats, making the socialite roll his eyes.

Lastly... it's a bunch of coal?! Who in their right mind would do such a thing as give Tomi a bunch of coal?! Unfortunately for him, there are too many answers to that question. ...However, a young man who bears a slight resemblance to him is laughing to himself as he imagines the expression on his sibling's face...

Karada Kessaku

A yardlong packet of Karada's favorite chocolate bars given to him by Luis. Karada doesn't think twice before ripping open the box and diving right into the chocolate.

A Christmas present from Tomi, which contains a pair of exercise equipment. Karada cannot wait to try them out!

Lastly, some gingerbread men given to him by some of his exercise buddies. They're pretty burnt, but Karada either doesn't notice or care as he shoves them in his mouth.

Luis Kōkyū

A box of candy canes given to him by Tomi. Truthfully, he's never really cared for candy canes since one poked him in the eye once. ...Still, they do make a good decoration and snack.

A mug given to him by Karada that says, 'World's Best Chef'. A bit of an overstatement, but Luis can't help but fill proud. He'll have to thank him for this.

And lastly, a plush brown dog toy given to him by his Abuela. He smiles as he knows why she did this. When he was younger, he asked his grandmother if he could have a dog, and she got him one. Luis took good care of it and did his best to raise it. But soon, the dog got sick and died. Luis didn't ask for another pet after that cause he was too heartbroken. He was surprised his grandmother still remembered. He smiles sadly as he goes to put the doll in his room.

During the flood scenario in the northern area people are forlorn and waiting for help. I pray for them. Today, I went nowhere and spent the entire day at home. I fried yardlong beans and eggs for breakfast. The three Pho arrived with lunch: fried spicy chicken for me and boiling salt egg soup for them. I was delighted not to have to cook. I despise cooking. Ferry, Kokhao., and Kokhing came to participate in our activities; they read tales, played games, and drew pictures. They are skilled in drawing. I adore children's art. I toasted four slices of bread, smeared butter, and sprinkled sugar on top. The kids seemed to appreciate it. Ferry requested one more piece of toast, but there was no butter left. Lek is in Saraburi and will be returning tomorrow night. I did not go to feed her dogs, but her neighbor did. My home is so quiet without Friday; I've missed you.

Daily Care for My Growing Vegetable Garden

Taking care of a vegetable garden requires consistency and attention to detail. Here’s a detailed guide to ensure your garden thrives:

1. Morning Watering Routine

Check Soil Moisture: Early in the morning, inspect the soil to see if it needs watering. Stick your finger an inch deep into the soil; if it feels dry, it’s time to water.

Watering: Use a watering can or hose with a gentle spray to avoid disturbing the soil. Water at the base of the plants to reduce the risk of fungal diseases that can occur when leaves stay wet for too long.

Mulching: Check the mulch layer around your plants. Add more organic mulch, such as straw or grass clippings, if needed. Mulch helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.

2. Regular Weeding

Spot Weeds Early: Pull out weeds as soon as they appear. Weeding is easiest when the soil is moist. Removing weeds early prevents them from competing with your vegetables for nutrients and water.

Use a Hoe: For larger areas, use a hoe to remove weeds while they are still small.

3. Pest and Disease Monitoring

Inspect Leaves: Look at the undersides of leaves for pests like aphids, caterpillars, or whiteflies. Remove any pests by hand or use organic insecticidal soap.

Check for Diseases: Look for signs of disease, such as yellowing leaves, spots, or mildew. Remove affected leaves immediately and consider applying an organic fungicide if necessary.

4. Pruning and Training

Prune Regularly: Trim off dead or yellowing leaves to encourage healthy growth. Pinch off the tips of plants that are growing too tall to encourage bushier growth.

Support Vines: If you have climbing plants like tomatoes or cucumbers, make sure they are properly supported by trellises or stakes. Tie them gently to the support structure as they grow.

5. Fertilizing

Weekly Feeding: Once a week, apply a balanced organic fertilizer to provide essential nutrients. Alternatively, use compost tea or diluted fish emulsion.

Side-Dressing: Apply compost or aged manure around the base of plants to provide a slow-release source of nutrients.

6. Harvesting

Harvest Regularly: Pick vegetables as soon as they are ripe to encourage the plant to produce more. For leafy greens, harvest the outer leaves first.

Handle with Care: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid damaging the plants when harvesting.

7. Evening Checks

Final Inspection: In the evening, do a quick walk-through of your garden to check for any issues that may have developed during the day, such as wilting plants or signs of pests.

Close the Day: If your garden is fenced, make sure gates are closed to keep out animals.

Building a Bamboo Trellis for Long Beans

Long beans, also known as yardlong beans, are vigorous climbers that require a sturdy support system to grow vertically. Building a bamboo trellis is a sustainable and effective solution.

Materials Needed:

Bamboo poles (6–8 feet long)

Twine or wire

Hammer and nails or a drill and screws

Measuring tape

Garden scissors

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Choose the Site

Location: Select a sunny spot in your garden where the long beans will receive at least 6–8 hours of sunlight daily.

Space: Ensure there is enough space for the trellis to stand securely and allow for the plants to climb.

2. Prepare the Bamboo Poles

Cut the Poles: If necessary, cut the bamboo poles to the desired length (6–8 feet is ideal for long beans).

Sharpen Ends: Sharpen one end of each pole to make it easier to drive them into the ground.

3. Set Up the Vertical Poles

Spacing: Measure and mark the locations for the vertical poles. Space them about 3 feet apart in a row.

Drive Poles into the Ground: Using a hammer, drive each bamboo pole about 1 foot deep into the soil to ensure stability.

4. Install the Horizontal Support

Top Crossbar: Place a horizontal bamboo pole across the top of the vertical poles, securing it with twine, wire, or nails.

Additional Crossbars: Depending on the height of your trellis, add one or two more horizontal poles lower down to provide extra support.

5. Create the Climbing Structure

Twine Grid: Tie twine horizontally and vertically between the poles to create a grid for the beans to climb.

Secure Twine: Make sure the twine is tight and securely tied at each intersection. This grid will support the vines as they grow.

6. Planting and Training

Planting: Plant the long bean seeds or seedlings at the base of each vertical pole.

Training: As the beans begin to grow, gently guide the vines toward the trellis. They will naturally start to climb, but early guidance ensures they follow the structure.

7. Maintenance

Check Stability: Periodically check the trellis for stability, especially after storms or strong winds.

Re-Tie Loose Twine: If any twine becomes loose, retie it to keep the structure firm.

Prune and Harvest: As the beans grow, prune any excessive foliage to ensure air circulation and easy harvesting.

Building a bamboo trellis not only provides strong support for your long beans but also adds a natural and aesthetic element to your garden. With proper care, your trellis will last through multiple growing seasons.
