Although it might at first seem counterintuitive that any portion of the root system should be impermeable to water, the older regions of the root must be sealed off if there is to be water uptake (and thus bulk flow of nutrients) from the regions of the root system that are actively exploring new areas in the soil (Figure 4.3).

Szegény tacsi nem érti, hogy mit esznek rajta - szó szerint - a nyuszik...

Erről eszembe jut, hogy a Mama sokszor főzőtökkel (is) etette a tyúkokat és a kacsákat, mert rengeteg termett belőle a kertben és mi nem szerettük annyira a tökfőzeléket... meg hát olcsó és egészséges a baromfiknak is és imádták. Tesóm, unokatesóim és én pedig imádtunk segíteni a Mamának 1. tököt szedni 2. tököt adni az állatoknak, főleg, mert ehhez földhöz kellett baszkodni a tököket (amit 35 évesen ugyanannyira poénnak találok, mint 10 évesen), optimálisan kétfelé hasadtak így, és a darabokat letenni az éhes szájaknak. A kapcsolódás az oridzsi poszthoz csak annyi, hogy akkori kutyánk, egy erdélyi kopó keverék szerelmes tekintettel sündörgött körülöttünk, mikor egyszer az első udvarban történt a tökosztás - jól nevelt volt, nem vette el az engedélyünk nélkül, de mindenáron akart egy darab tököt. Abból indulhatott ki, hogy ha az ember kezében van és ehetőnek tűnik, akkor biztos finom is. Adtunk is neki egyet végre, aztán vigyorogva néztük, ahogy dobálgatja, nyalogatja, nem eszi meg, de nem is engedi el, hanem morogva védte a tyúkoktól és a kacsáktól. :3

(amindenit, találtam képet az állatról! <3)

Pattypan Squash

(cucurbita pepo, var. clypeata)

Also known as scallop squash, custard squash, pâtisson or ciblème

Let me start off by saying that I did not know these were edible, I always thought they were ornamental, but the pattypan is a summer squash that is apparently mildly sweet, with a flavor not dissimilar to zucchini/courgette (cucurbita pepo, var. cylindrica). The disc-shaped fruits come in many sizes as well as colours and its name has various origins, with ''pattypan'' referring to the shape of a pan specifically for baking patties and the French ''pâtisson'' deriving from the Provençal word for a cake made in a scalloped mould. They supposedly taste best when still small, developing a more potato-like flavour the larger they get, personally I wouldn't mind that.

🎃 Reblog to share a fun fruit and to increase sample size! Check out even more interesting fruits here or in the list of all polled fruits. 🎃

New harvests!

- A pretty zucchini! This one is Cucurbita pepo ‘Pantheon F1’

- Capsicum pubescens! A lesser known species of pepper that grows around the Andes and are able to tolerate cooler and shadier conditions than other peppers. This one’s seed packet was labeled “Hairy Bolivian Pepper, red” I think? I also have another variety of C. pubescens called Brown Rocoto growing. I’ve been trying to grow this species for a while but kept botching them and this is the first time I’ve gotten ripe fruit! They’re apparently more temperamental than regular peppers starting out.

They’re also weird in that they have hard black seeds that other nightshades don’t commonly have! They’re also a little “meatier” in texture than other peppers. I took a small nibble of a raw one and my mouth definitely also burned quite a bit for the next 15 minutes or so. :P

During the transition period, the tip exports sugar, while the base imports it from the other source leaves (Figure 11.19).
