My grow beds are happily growing but I think I overfed my gold fish. I still have a couple of hardy survivors but the rest turned belly up. My main activity this week has been harvesting and dehydrating golden plums from the tree that grows next to the greenhouse where I have my hydroponics setup. I was just getting prepared to go back and pick fruit when a number of my grandkids showed up. The older children, 7, 6, and 5, really like picking plums. I gave each of them a small plastic bucket and provided a table they could stand on. They got busy and harvested a peck of nice plums which I have turned into dehydrated fruit. I used a steel tube apple corer to remove the pits, taking more of the meat than I liked, but far more efficient than any other method I tried. Plums really hang on to their pits and most of the fruit directly around the pit is somewhat more sour than I like.
