How to eat fresh fennel seed | Foeniculum vulgare

This is how i eat my fennel seed. In this YouTube video i show you the best time to eat fennel seeds. "Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a flowering plant species in the carrot family. It is a hardy, perennial herb with yellow flowers and feathery leaves. It is indigenous to the shores of the Mediterranean but has become widely naturalized in many parts of the world, especially on dry soils near the sea-coast and on riverbanks.

It is a highly aromatic and flavorful herb used in cookery and, along with the similar-tasting anise, is one of the primary ingredients of absinthe. Florence fennel or finocchio is a selection with a swollen, bulb-like stem base that is used as a vegetable. Fennel is used as a food plant by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including in its native range the mouse moth and the Old-World swallowtail. Where it has been introduced in North America it may be used by the anise swallowtail." if you like this video don't forget to LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE!

Fennel is widely cultivated, both in its native range and elsewhere, for its edible, strongly flavored leaves and fruits. Its aniseed flavor comes from anethole, an aromatic compound also found in anise and star anise, and its taste and aroma are similar to theirs, though usually not as strong.

Florence fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Azoricum Group; syn. F. vulgare var. azoricum) is a cultivar group with inflated leaf bases which form a bulb-like structure. It is of cultivated origin, and has a mild anise-like flavor, but is sweeter and more aromatic. Florence fennel plants are smaller than the wild type. The inflated leaf bases are eaten as a vegetable, both raw and cooked. Several cultivars of Florence fennel are also known by several other names, notably the Italian name finocchio. In North American supermarkets, it is often mislabeled as "anise". Foeniculum vulgare 'Purpureum' or 'Nigra', "bronze-leaved" fennel, is widely available as a decorative garden plant.

The cabbage looper (Trichoplusia ni) is a moth in the family Noctuidae, a family commonly referred to as owlet moths. Its common name comes from its preferred host plants and distinctive crawling behavior. Cruciferous vegetables, such as cabbage, bok choy, and broccoli, are its main host plant; hence, the reference to cabbage in its common name. The larvae is called a looper because it arches its back into a loop when it crawls.

While crucifers are preferred, over 160 plants can serve as hosts for the cabbage looper larvae. The adult cabbage looper is a migratory moth that can be found across North America and Eurasia, as far south as Florida and as far north as British Columbia. Its migratory behavior and wide range of host plants contribute to its broad distribution. The cabbage looper larva is a vegetable pest, especially for crucifers. While it is not extremely destructive, it is becoming difficult to manage due to its broad distribution and resistance to many insecticides. Numerous methods are being researched in order to control this species.

The papaya is a small, sparsely branched tree, usually with a single stem growing from 5 to 10 m (16 to 33 ft) tall, with spirally arranged leaves confined to the top of the trunk. The lower trunk is conspicuously scarred where leaves and fruit were borne. The leaves are large, 50–70 cm (20–28 in) in diameter, deeply palmately lobed, with seven lobes. All parts of the plant contain latex in articulated laticifers. Papayas are dioecious. The flowers are 5-parted and highly dimorphic, the male flowers with the stamens fused to the petals. The female flowers have a superior ovary and five contorted petals loosely connected at the base. Male and female flowers are borne in the leaf axils, the males in multiflowered dichasia, the female flowers is few-flowered dichasia. The flowers are sweet-scented, open at night and are moth-pollinated.

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/                                                                    Gardening is the practice of growing and cultivating plants as part of horticulture. In gardens, ornamental plants are often grown for their flowers, foliage, or overall appearance; useful plants, such as root vegetables, leaf vegetables, fruits, and herbs, are grown for consumption, for use as dyes, or for medicinal or cosmetic use. Gardening is considered by many people to be a relaxing activity.

Gardening ranges in scale from fruit orchards, to long boulevard plantings with one or more different types of shrubs, trees, and herbaceous plants, to residential yards including lawns and foundation plantings, to plants in large or small containers grown inside or outside.

..................PLANTED FISH TANKS: THE WALSTAD METHOD

MY PLANTED FISH TANKS
BY HEIRLOOM REVIEWS
PHOTO BY HEIRLOOM REVIEWS
75 GALLON DIRTED TANK
I have been keeping fish tanks for over 20 years. about 8 years ago (from 2016) i read the book, walstad method book: Ecology of the Planted Aquarium and was intrigued that a fish tank can actually become a self sustaining ecosystem! So i began setting up my tanks based on what i have read an the image above (75 gallon dirted tank) is the first tank i set up using the walstad method. For the first 2 years it had its challenges, algae, fish death, plant death, water fouling, ETC... But after about 2 years all these problems became less an less as time moved on.

Dwarf sag 75 Gal
Now after 8 years the tank is totally self sustaining with almost no maintenance! I only clean the filters 2 or 3 times a year. i haven't changed the water in over 4 years, i only add water. I do dose the tank once a week during the winter but not during the summer time due to being busy with gardening and what not. So i started on another 75 gallon tanks with a slightly different set up as far as filters an lighting go's but everything else was the same. Well that tank has failed along with 2 other 55 gallon tanks! all the other tanks never made it just the first 75 gallon tank. Some how i got the first tank right an should of followed it exactly with out any deviations, perhaps maybe the other tanks would have done just as good. In this video here ⟹ PLANTED TANK : My 75 gallon Walstad, dirted fish tank, 2016 i show my 75 gallon dirted fish tank.
And in this video ⟹ PLANTED TANK : My 55 gallon Walstad, dirted fish tank, 2016 i show a 55 gallon dirted fish tank i recently set up for another shot at the walstad method. I i will update this blog as i make changes as well as the dosing an ferts i use during the winter months. That's all for now an i will leave you with a music video of the 75 gallon dirted fish tank! : )

What is the Walstad Method?
This method of setting up an aquarium tank was made popular by Diana Walstad, author of the book 'ECOLOGY of the PLANTED AQUARIUM - A Practical Manual and Scientific Treatise for the Home Aquarist'. Basically it's a natural planted tank with a substrate containing a soil underlayer.

Principles
Provide an ecosystem where plants and fish balance each other's needs. The soil underlayer ensures that plants grow well enough to out-compete algae and recycle fish waste and toxins (e.g., ammonia, nitrite, etc.). Without soil, plants don't grow well enough to do "their job"

Principle steps
     1 inch layer of inexpensive, generic potting soil (or "top soil") available from any garden centres or various home improvement stores. (John Innes number 3 recipe is ideal). Avoid soils containing chemical fertilizers (sulfates and nitrates will be converted to toxic H2S and nitrite after soil is submerged). Phosphate and calcium fertilizers (i.e., a little bone meal mixed with soil) may be beneficial. Get non-sterile 'aquatic pond soil' if it's available. Soil based compost - John Innes #3

    1 inch of medium fine gravel (or very shallow layer of sand) to cover the soil layer (the soil bacteria need oxygen, so don't smother the soil layer with rocks, driftwood, etc)

    If you have soft-water, you can mix in a calcium source (lime, coral gravel, shells, bone meal, etc) with the soil to make sure plants get enough calcium, GH for their initial set-up.

    For tank set-up, start out with many species of fast-growing plants (you want to find the ones that adapt best to your tank's conditions). Examples: Hygrophila corymbosa, Shinnersia riv., Rotala rotundifolia, Ludwigia repens, Limnophila sessiliflora, Hornwort, Riccia, etc.
