windys hot lemonade recipce

1-2 lemon from your favorite lemon tree
lots of sugar
hot water
paper towel
rubber band
serve in whatever mug is largest and thus can have the most lemon and sugar in it

take the lemons and cut them in half top to bottom and then in half top to bottom.
squeeze lemons over mug with paper towel over it. the rubber band hold on the paper towels. when i was young id like pretend i was steeping tea as i slowly waited for the lemon juice to flow through into the mug.
remove the paper towel and the detritus it contains
put hot water in the mug
add a lot of sugar.
enjoy!


WindmillSlayer

hot tip: if u add the sugar BEFORE the water it will become more of a homogenous mixture. if u do it AFTER u get sugar particulate on the bottom of the mug and i like that

is this where we're posting our lemon trees? mine is very old and spews out lemons faster than anyone can use them.

i've talked to it about pacing itself and reducing production a tad but kids these days never listen


Thank you for the beautiful sig Machai!

checklist to guard lemons

a chair
a straw hat
a long stalk of grass to chew
a stool to put up your feet
a glass of lemonade
a nap

i tried to take a picture of a different tree but it wasn't as good so im not going to post it. i smoked a joint and thought it over and i wouldn't post second rate content in this thread.


WindmillSlayer

the morality of posting sincerely is insane and i can't in good conscience ruin a thread this good with a bad picture of a tree.

If you've been getting lemons from that tree for years, OP, then it has worked hard and maybe would like a rest. Perhaps plant the seeds from one of its fruits and start growing it a companion?

When I was a kid in CA, my neighbor never picked their lemons so they'd grow huge enough where we could use them as footballs (that broke open and covered your with juice eventually). Sadly, they were mostly rind inside.

yeah the longer they're on the tree the bigger the rind is. but they're still good. right now we have a mix of lemons from last season and and new ones on the tree



i'm sure someone in authority will tell me we should have stripped the tree of fruit before the new ones came out but that sounds like work.


Thank you for the beautiful sig Machai!

I was watching simpsons at 0.75 without knowing until a scene where homer and bart were getting back massages at a hotel and the noises they were making were super drawn out like a youtube poop
Op im basically a plant doctor and im regret to inform you that that your lemon tree is not looking too healthy :(

im happy to say that, as a plant doctor, that fluffieduckies tree is healthy and is likely going to be an athelete

It looks like it needs more sunshine but more importantly, I think he's ready for a bigger home. The top part of the plant (leaves, trunk) can only grow larger if their roots are allowed to as well. One of the many reasons why Fluffie's looks so spectacular is because the roots are free to grow and travel and tap into our planet's resources unimpeded. That and it's growing in earth, rich in organic matter and not potting medium, lol. And also the climate... We can't all live in a citric heaven, however.

Look at the time! I'm rambling on! Try to find a plastic pot with drainage that's one to two sizes larger than what you have. Now is an okay time to transplant I think because your plant doesn't appear to be in flower but isn't dormant either. Transplanting is a stressful thing for the plant at first but after a few weeks you'll notice plant looking happier.
