Howdy Pete! Man your broccoli looks awesome! A strong testament to your composting and soil amendments! Beth the chickens love the scraps lol. Well done and thanks for sharing 🤠
For most fruit, the freeze dryer is awesome. I especially like the FD for melons to be used in smoothies. For veggies, the only luck I've had is with minced garlic and ginger, and shredded carrots and onions for making homemade egg rolls. Broccoli might work out in the freeze dryer because like you said, it's used in dishes like casseroles where you cook it anyway, so texture isn't super important. I may give it a try.
I don't have a green house. I tried two years to grow broccoli, and they got consumed by worms that camouflaged perfectly with the plant. There was no defeating them. By growing them in the greenhouse, do you still have a worm problem?
wow that's just super awesome
I would freeze dry all of it stems and leaves too
1.19 Kilograms or 1190 Grams, if you pull the skin off by grabbing edge w/little knife (starting from bottom to top) it comes off cleaner.
Just think Pete, you don't have to process all those vegatables anymore! All the best on your Carnivore journey.
It's still winter up here Pete, first snow back in November smashed our hoop house, lots of work for us this spring
We had 6 inches a couple years ago and luckily most of the snow came off our greenhouse.

Thank you 👍
Cut up the soft upper sections of your broccoli and freeze dry it. Make into powder.

I don't get many worms in the greenhouse. If you see small moths flying around, they are the egg layers for those worms.
Wow that broccoli is huge Pete...
Do you freeze dry the leaves to put in smoothies?
Great video my friend
God bless you and your family🙏♥️🙏
Yes that would be great so you can put in smoothies whenever you need to.
If the veggies are blanched first will they hold up better when reconstituting?
So could you have cooked those and then freeze dried them? That way you could just eat them after you reconstituted them?
Nice job Pete , what is the name of the big water filter you have there?
Here is the link to that back washing iron water filter. www.cleanwaterstore.com/iron-and-manganese-filters-for-well-water.html
