Where are you? South East Queensland? I wonder if ginger will grow where I am currently in Eastern North Carolina.
What are you trowing on the surface as an furtalizer? Small pieces of the shell of chicken eggs?
what did you make with that ginger, cuke and was that mint?
Well done
This is awesome but it's pronounced "rye zomes" not "rhyme-zomes" !
I’m just your average dad in Sydney and only by watching your videos I’ve become interested in gardening. Now I’ve got a few square metres of a raised bed, a few large bags for potato’s and 2 Dozen pots for beans, peas, carrots, and lots of other veggies and citrus. It’s becoming a very enjoyable hobby but also an education, and a totally free source of nutrition and pleasure as I can now supplement every meal with free clean ingredients that I can cook / steam/ fry /grill.
I understand that this is how life was supported for thousands of years and so it’s almost a genetic memory to relearn how to cultivate life.
Thank you.

Awesome to hear x
Crazy! I'm watching this video in 2022 (4 years after it was originally uploaded) and I'm very encouraged by the size of your garden and how it has developed over the years! No Birdies raised beds. More hair. Same great lessons and sense of humor! Mark, you are the man!
My day starts with a mug of ginger and lemon boiled up for 10 min. Add a tsp of honey for taste.
I call it my daily energy drink.
I do it too. Without Lemon. Because I do it while at work. Working in the oil patch far away from home. I do it with Camille tea. The honey I mix in my tea after it cools off a little bit. So to not destroy the good things in the honey.
great but thats also a tooth enamel striper as well so rinse mouth after drinking.
@@englishweather9763 Thanks - I didn't know!!
@@HappySunshineDay warm acids are always worse.
Hi John, you boil the ginger and lemon? I like to drink it too, but i put it in boiled water and let it soak for.10.minutes without boiling. I keep it warm on a candle light holder. I think the vitmines etc stay in than. Sorry for mu English. I am.drom yhe Netherlands.
I really appreciate the way you explain these things for "normal" people. I feel like your description of the "eyes" was perfect. Gardening isn't nearly as complicated as many professionals make it seem and the steps are often just obvious. Clear a space, lay it out, bury it a bit, water it and make sure the soil isn't garbage. Simple and easy.
Yep, it's mostly elbow grease, discipline, logic and protecting your crop/babies from all the critters that want to get in and have a go at it.

I love watching this fellow!
This is the first year I grow ginger. It's exciting to do so I can see huge shoots an I watch them every day. It's such fun. Try it.
Bullet points. Straight and to the point. Very informative. No rambling and no useless chatter. Well done. Thank you for not wasting the viewers time.
You are the most subscribed to, private gardener on UA-cam! And every video, I can see why! You are a God send to us novice veggie gardeners. Thank you, Mark! Nothing you do is boring, and you make me laugh with your great sense of humor. God bless you in all your endeavors!
I want this guy to be famous.
This guy is the garden Steve Irwin.
I was thinking the same thing! It's plant Steve Irwin
Steve Irwin was insane. This i guy is not a crazy person.
Ryan zqS
Steve Irwin wasn't insane, he's very enthusiastic about saving the highly misunderstood wildlife like the crocodiles, snakes etc. That's all.
Literally same thought process
He is the best
There Is nothing better than to get gardening instruction from an Australian.
Your gardening vids are the best!
Gene Miller, To right!!
ken oath mate, gotta agree. 👍
Bloody oath mate...
Someone asks: Do you wanna grow a ton of ginger? you're like huh maybe, not really...
Someone asks: Do you wanna grow a ton of GINJA?! you'll be like you bet your ass I DO!!!
It is even healing to watch this video. All my stress is gone! Thank you!
Useful tips mate, TY.
A couple of suggestions:
1. Before planting, try soaking the ginger in a solution of Trichoderma overnight. This protects the ginger from fungus.
2. Grate fully developed ginger into lime juice add a pinch of rock salt. Store in a glass bottle(steel corrodes over a period of times). Drink a spoonful of this when you have indigestion. Prettys simple and effective. 😃.
super, how long does it keep? any other ideas of how to use ginger ?
Trichoderma?? I do my very best to protect my mushrooms from that mold. How would one soak ginger in it?
@@greeneyeslima1 upto a month in a refrigerator. So make in small portions. In some parts of India they make ginger pickle, buy I' am not aware of the procedure.
@@greeneyeslima11. crush a slice of it and boil in water while making tea . Ginger tea. 2. Crush amd make paste of slice and add to your soups or veges. 3. Pickle slices. Very healthy herb
Is it just me or does anyone else find the sound of the ginger snapping satisfying?
I do xD
Just discovered this guy... He is awesome.
Patricia Barnes correct..actually I’m watching massively his videos
ME TOO, 3 MONTH AGO.
Welcome
“Don’t worry about all of that bumpkin” Ha! I could listen to him all day. Great info!
Every morning in my healthy breakfast I have a palm full of cubed ginger . With Turmeric , it fights inflammation and tastes fresh and delicious
can you please do an in depth video on storing your produce long term.
I simply love the way you explain. clear precise straight forward short and sweet. some people just go on and on and we have forgotten what they were talking in the first place !!!!! I'm from sri lanka which is an agriculture based country (used to be... now a little different though ) I salute you. Thank you for the tips.
Thank you very much! I do try and keep these types of videos/formats much "sharper" than my usual say "walk around" vids. I do understand some people are just after concise information rather than long-winded explanations (which I'm prone to do myself sometimes) so I appreciate your feedback confirming this approach. All the best :)

This is actually really calming. I feel like he's kind old grandpa teaching me how to garden. (I'm also growing ginger in nevada and this was super helpful!) Candied ginger and ginger tea's are my favorite way to eat ginger. I have tendonitis/carpal tunnel with a lot of swelling, and ginger is anti-inflamitory so it really helps.
fresh ginger tea is soooo good and helps with a lot with sore throat, digestion problems, helps your liver to detox,
Abby, I love to make ginger dressing.....it is GREAT
You're eyesight is not good though. He is no where near being an old grandpa. Fresh carrots might help.
Erica I believe hes just stating it reminds him of his grandfather , you know a sweet old man , not that he is one , just his teachings
@@carolburnett8372 yummy, please share the recipe!! thanks
I love adding ginger, turmeric, and garlic in my soups, salads, eggs, etc. Love these videos you made! Thank you!
I love how he has become more expressive and playful over the years.
Just for fun, trim off a few perfect leaves and wrap some fish in them. Bake, steam or grill it.
Save a small leaf or two to garnish your plates, too.
You can always trust a true Aussie. Cheers from Melbourne.
I had no idea ginger was this easy to grow yourself! I can't wait to try it out myself, thank you!
How passionate was this fellow! Very informative and easy to watch. I enjoyed the natural joy that came through, the enormous love this guy has of planting and harvesting Ginger. As a retired scientist in natural medicine, i understand the wonderful health properties of Ginger. This is my first time growing this plant in my own garden. Thank you for your 5 tips on growing Ginger. I am all set to go! Many thanks jane
G'day Jane and thank you for such a wrap coming from a scientist makes it extra special that you felt my info and video was worthy of comment. All the best :)
So what are the health properties and how do you use ginger?
@Jane Anderson as retired scientist in natural medicine please do help me what plant or herb should I use as preservative for my homemade herbal cream, liniment, and soap coz I go for natural way. I don't want to use synthetic one.
Yes!!! I LOOOOOVE HIM!!!!! 💙💜💚🧡💛
Love his video...
Btw...I am from Malaysia. We usually boil clear chicken soup with it. Asians use ginger in almost every dishes. :-)
So more on how do you use it?
I’m from the Philippines and we this too. We usually add either sayote or very young green papaya and moringa leaves. Yum! 😋
Yum.... Malaysian cuisine 😋
How unfortunate orientals eat dogs and cats
I can't believe my luck a fellow queenslander yay. I've been wanting to become self sufficient but have been struggling. Thanks to you I feel like I stand a chance. And ginger is one of my favourite things! This is so awesome 👍❤️
Ginger a good choice guessing cause of stress ATM. Did U end growing it? Would like grow as presents for family or sell online either the harvested or the whole plant. For me motivation is low but think should be self sufficient a bit, grow extra so can swap maybe for other stuff. Society weird ATM.
I re-watched this video after growing a bit of store-bought ginger root for about a year and a half, in a container. After the first die-back of the foliage I thought it was dead. The leaves never got really big and were always sickly. I repotted it several months ago and have since enjoyed beautiful, lush foliage, and I keep seeing new shoots coming up. I think I will harvest some soon! Thank you for educating us on sub-tropical gardening, it has been wonderful to learn.
I nearly died last year, the doc thought I had emphysema and or COPD. My husband made me drinks of ginger, fresh lemon juice and a little honey, morning, noon and night, even at 2am when I couldn't breathe. it was often the only thing that would stop me coughing. turned out I dont have those illnesses, but was affected by mould from neighbours old couch he left in the yard facing my dining room window. one couch was moved, my symptoms disappeared with in 2 weeks. I still take this drink first thing every morning, I swear it saved my life.I have now started growing ginger, but have learnt a lot from this video....thank you. loving learning lots about gardening
Patricia Dianne Kahi could you give the recipe for the drink like how you make it
@@nesnaga hi there are no specific measurements.. Make to taste
Grated ginger put in teapot, fill with boiling water.
When cooled a little strain into a mug, add fresh lemon juice e and raw honey.
I often chop or grate a large ammount if ginger, put in saucepan with plenty of water.
Simmer for half an hour or mour.
When cool, strain into a jug and store in fridge.
Each morning I put about an inch of ginger juice into a mug, top with boiled water and lemon juice and honey. I sometimes add a 1/4 teaspoon of grated garlic in drink as well.
Hope this helps you. I'm not an expert, and I don't give medical advice just sharing what helped me
Patricia Dianne Kahi thank you
Patricia Dianne Kahi a lot of people call it the ‘flu bomb’. Add some cayenne pepper if you like. I drink this even when not sick.
Did you thank your husband truly?
Ginger beer: fermented couple weeks wth cane sugar, champagne yeast ,& pinapple juice
H.Celeste N that sounds good 😋
Made some while in Mexico this winter. It is, as the kids say, Most Awesome.
Delicious!
Man I would love to go in my garden and call this guys name and he comes running rescue me with my garden mistakes. He is so patient 👍
Lol, yeah. I can just hear him saying "not to worry, you didn't stuff it up!"
Sliced very thin and boil for 30 seconds
in equal parts white vinegar and water. Take off the heat and add sugar or Splenda. Let it sit for a few minutes, hours (in the fridge) or days. I eat it with lettuce wraps, curry or straight out of the jar. Thank you for the growing tips Mark! This is my favorite channel
Great video, I may try growing some in Mississippi, USA next Spring 2019. My favorite use for Ginger is making homemade Ginger Ale... 1 cup sliced Ginger (steep to extract favor) add to 1 gal Water. 2 cups Sugar, 1 Lemon (juiced) 1 Lime (juiced) 1/2tsp - 1tsp yeast (More in cooler months or climates) , mix then bottle for 48-72 hrs at room temperature, burb daily, then refrigerate for the BEST Ginger Ale ever. *** NOTE: I use old flip top beer bottles & water bottles.
UPDATE: I bought an masticating juicer and now make about 2 oz of ginger jucie to use per gallon (+/- to taste)
Shane J McNair how’d it go Mississippi? NW Arkansas here 😊
Shane, can we replace 1 tsp yeast with sourdough yeast instead. Appreciate it if you could advice. From Malaysia
@@madelinkoh Yes, any yeast will work to start the carbonation process. Different yeast will only impart different characteristics in flavor. Enjoy.
@@eljenison7312 So far so good, making more Ginger Ale during Covid-19 Lockdown...
I enjoy your vids, even though I'm gardening in high altitude Colorado USA! I wanted to tell you that those stems and leaves you cut off your ginger when you harvested at the end of the video are edible, too! You can put them in soups and stir frys. The stalks are a bit like lemon grass.
Hi Heather, where in CO? We came from Aspen to Australia. There is a great No-till farm in Carbondale if you are near there. Called Wild Seeds.
Informative thanks!
Heather I am also growing things in Colorado!!! Thanks for your advice. As soon as my ginger grows I will do this
Tq for the useful info... Otherwise I would have thrown out those stems nd leaves
Thank you for mentioning that the stalks are edible. I was wondering if they were. Thanks again!
Fresh ginger in my coffee every morning 🌄 It helps my body in so many ways. My lungs, aches and pains, digestive issues. ❤️ Ginger and turmeric
I love watching your videos! Not only are you educational to watch, you're entertaining too! I have started watching because I would like to grow my own veggies, herbs and fruit. Since I'm 69 and have issues gardening low to the ground, I love the idea of the raised beds, that is why I started watching these videos. I am going to start soon, so have to binge watch! Thank you so much for making it seem easy and do-able. I'll let you know how my gardening goes!
fresh ginger from garden is best. I also use the stalk and leaves for soup when I cook but don't eat the stalk bc it is tough to chew or boil and use water for bath is good for the skin
nice tip!
Oh cool!
This brother has great love for faming could feel his vibes
Love from grenada man bless up

I just wanted to say, you really make me smile! I love your energy!
Thank you Jaqueline! :)
Just discovered SSM and I am loving it, just had to subscribe.
USE FOR GINGER : our No 1 family use is for treatment of teenage pimples! True. It cleans the circulation so well and fast that within 24 hours facial skin improves. My teenage boys use it all the time, … I don’t even have to tell them too! They just automatically, voluntarily use it if their face is breaking out or they have sugary foods (pity it wasn’t the same response when the lawn needed mowing). Anyway I chop up fresh ginger into small pieces, put about a 1/2 teaspoon of the stuff in a coffee cup and add boiling water, basically a fresh ginger tea. You can refill the same ginger with more hot water a few times over. I often chop up fresh ginger into little single serve amounts, put into a tiny ziplock bags and freeze. Then when needed just take out of freezer, out of bag, add boiling water … instant pimple cure. Enjoy!
I like putting a few slices in a cup of green tea. My now deceased mum swore by it as she battled years of cancer and it helped her for over 2 decades. Great production 😊
My favourite base, onions ,garlic,ginger
Thanks boss! My son and I are giving ginger a go here in FL. I really like your videos, but it's even better that he likes 'em too and is getting into gardening. Thank you.
Try bitter ginger, also called pinecone Lilly I live in FL as well and it does better than the standard cullinary variety and tastes better
Ginger can be used in your curry, in tea, and medicinal purposes. Adding to your morning tonic or hot water drink , turmeric, lemon and ginger. Perfect to keep the cold away.
Just found some ginger that started to sprout, I make Elderberry Syrup for the winter. I searched UA-cam and your channel gave wonderful concise directions for planting. This will be my first time to plant ginger and I’m 71, learn something new everyday. New Subscriber! I’m in Oregon, U.S.A.
I love this gentleman. I juice ginger and it is the BEST for clearing sinuses!!! I drink it down (with other juices juiced) and in a few minutes my nose needs to be blown and I Can Breath!!! I can breathe really good! I LOVE Ginger!!! Thank you for this!!! Keep up the GREAT work!! This homemade love energy you put into these videos are very much appreciated! Love!!!
Love your videos! Our favourite uses of fresh ginger: Thai (and most other) cooking; make a tea of it, with some honey, for tummy troubles; a daily jug of water with ginger; mint; basil; cucumber slices - refreshing, healthy and healing all at once!
Great video Mark. I planted fresh ginger in a large grow bag(nz) subtropical. End of March now and I am going to harvest😄 now as I thought I had to wait for plant to die down.
Top tip, Keep current ginger tuber in freezer and grate as needed. ❣️
With herb tea, lemon verbena/honey.
Love you Mark, sensible advice, lots of experience and the most comfortable information delivery technique. It’s just a joy to watch and listen.
minced ginger, lemongrass, thinly julienned lime leaf, chili, salt, and crushed pepper into chicken, ready to grill, fry, or steam with amazing stimulating taste
Talk about master cleanse!
Yum!
I've been planting gingers for almost 3 years. Started of small pieces in a small container, and they've been multiplying ever year. It was fun every harvesting time. Thanks for the tips, I haven't tried any fertilizer for my gingers. I may also transfer them into full sun area.
After watching this, I'm now going to call it Vitamin Ginger. 😁
Loved this video! It's me first time trying to grow ginger. Wish me luck!
Thank you for such excellent tips! I used gingers for tea, hot toddy, gingers stir fry with sesame oil chicken, beef stew, Indian curries, bloated stomach, sore throats, and etc. And you are right the gingers element benefit so many good stuff for our body.
Thank you so very much! I live in Orlando Florida. Planted Ginger in pots. Thanks to you I’m about to harvest. I love your great advice!! I love that you admit to things that didn’t work out! You are my SUPPER HERO !
I live in the eastern northern part of the USA, so when I buy ginger I find it very convenient to store it in the freezer. It grates very well and easily. Besides using it in cooking I love to boil some water and using a micro grater grate some into a cup and make a tea, then either add honey or stevia to sweeten it up a bit. There is nothing better for the digestive track than ginger.
I love ginger tea. Helps me when my gallbladder starts to hurt.
Good stuff mark, thanks for the inspiration, I'll get some ginger down in pots (indoors) over winter here in the UK and see how they fare into spring.
Absolutely love all your videos, you're a crusader for the cause that is self sufficiency!
I just ate ginger in lamb keema then watched this, now I'll grow my own 👌
Simple language very much useful for me as a beginner Thanks
Hello sir, I just start my organic life and found out your channel. I watch all your video from start till the end because every single minutes in your video very usefull and funny 😆, Thankyou sir ❤
This Bloke is great better than a lot of people on TV he should really have his own show on one of the big network channels
How I use my fresh ginger. I have to have a heart and both lungs transplant. I already have multiple stents in my heart. I asked a eastern medicine doctor for a natural treatment that I could use to keep my heart vessels clean and clear. I can't take medications for it I have had allergic reactions. He suggested I take fresh ginger peal in and grind it in a smoothie maker. I take one full teaspoon daily and I have not had any more blockages since I started taking the ginger. Also, the blockages they were going to stent ended up desolving before my procedures were done. About six moths of daily dosing cleaned every thing out. I mix the ginger paste with an equal amount of apple sauce and do two teaspoons of it. The apple sauce cuts the strength down so it's easier to take. I follow it with 8 oz of water. Enjoy the benefits of healthy vessels.
Thank you for your advise. Interesting. Going to try it for myself. Very interesting.
Wow, amazing! All the best! Unfortunately I loath ginger!
Good advice, man.
For heart related drink marutham pattai (Tamil language sidda medicine )botonicale name is terminalia arjuna )monthly once
you can mix ginger with garlic 1:1 too and cook with it....mostly base of may thai and delicious vietnamese meals....
Thank you so much for the clear tips! I enjoy ginger tea: hot, lukewarm, or iced. I'll be trying it with fresh mint and/or fresh lemon balm this afternoon as those herbs have taken off. I planted my first ginger today, so I'm waiting for my first little green sprout baby to be born! 😍
Thank you for your structural and simple teaching that even a city girl like me understands. 😊
My favorite way to use ginger is , making cookies, ginger snaps. Thank you
Great video. Very clear and enthusiastic with your information. Ginger is known in the Chinese culture to restore energy to the body. My favorite is with cooking ginger with Pigs Feet in this special sweet vinegar. The ginger typically used is the young ginger which we called purple ginger. Thanks for the video. Will start growing some ginger myself.
Juicing ginger, horse radish and apple together!! The best drink ever!!!
Thanks for your tidbits of wisdom. You have a spiritual relationship in gardening of food plants. A steward of His garden. ✝️👍💪❣️
This guy looks like a mix of Russell Crowe and that guy from Tool time on Home Improvement
wonderful video!!! thank u very much, i live in Berlin (Germany) and i'm trying to grow my own ginger... so far so good (or gut;) w all your help, pls keep doing videos, you are a natural teacher. cheers! veronica
My favourite use of ginger is for getting rid of sea sickness/travel sickness! But it's also very yummy in biscuits and egg fried rice.
I searched until I found this episode. I now have my own ginger growing Thank you for all your help. I enjoy all your informative videos.
I love Ginger in vegetable soups with beef or chicken it is truly a gift from God. Thanks for the video I plan to try your method of planting and growing the ginger. Stan
I would like to make ginger beer. This video has been a great help with lots of information and handy tips.Thank you
Hi, I am from New Delhi, India. Very interesting to watch your video, informative and motivating to grow ginger. I can grow in pots only, because I am staying in an apartment. I recall a very interesting incident of many years back, when ginger became too costly and was hard for people to buy it. An office colleague was visiting Assam, a north-eastern state in India and found that ginger was available there for far less a price. He brought along a lot of ginger and gifted to wives of his colleagues, people still remember him after 25-30 years.
Have a relatively new coworker and bud who has turned out to be a bit of a ginger nut. I had him by and just let this video play in the background, it seeming he hadn't heard of this channel or even content like this, and watched as his attention slowly turned to the video. Pretty soon he had completely tuned in on it and spaced out of our conversation. After a couple minutes taking it in he looked back at me, and the verdict went, "I love this guy!" Chalk that up as a successful conversion, I'd say.
GREAT video from the BEST youtuber! Starting tomorrow because i love juicing with ginger!
Thanks so much for this video! Here is some thing really really cool about Ginger, If you get a cheap planter or even a washing up bowl. Use exactly the same method you use for growing it. But leave it undisturbed for about 1-2 years and you will get the most awesome sweet smelling flowers ever. You can harvest some seeds and grow them and by doing this you will get seeds plants more suitable to your local environment. Useful if living in a temperate climate, Just take the whole planter indoors and keep dry over winter. Very important not to cut the old stems in any way. Just leave totally undisturbed, It some times takes a few good years for the plant to send up flowering stems, But well worth the wait.

THANKS!
Thank you!...Ive been searching for some wisdom on the subject.
Do they need much light in the winter? We get some in the morning most days..then it stays gray till dark.
Your garden especially your harvest is just amazing 👍🏼
Just start growing ginger for the first time and I am so excited to see them popping up through the ground. We eat a lot of ginger in cooking, tea, and drinks. See I'm from the island but never actually planted these before. Thanks for all the great info.
Love ginger! Can't make chinese food without it. Also love salad dressing made with it. Soo good! TFS I am going to try to grow it.
watching your videos inspires me to start my own fruit and vegetable garden.
Shreded ginger with lemon in water is an amazing
healthy way of refreshment especially in Summer
I love people who get excited about growing plants!
Terrific as always Mark... I always learn something from you. Thank you!! My absolute favorite way to use ginger is blended with my green drinks... As much ginger as I can handle along with some spinach, kale and some fruit, be it apples, bananas, grapes, strawberries, pears, berries or whatever is in season. Great pick me up mid-day or anytime really.
Ginger and pineapple. Amazing!
Thank you for this video! Watching with my young sons so they can plant ginger in their garden. Perfect instruction for home-schoolers.
Can’t say it enough love in these old videos keep them coming❤👍
I love to use my ginger in Asian cooking and also refreshing summer drinks..
Thinly sliced young ginger is used for sushi garnish, when pickled it has a natural pink color. The cheap pickled gingers just have coloring added. A mild brine with some sugar.
A different and much stronger tasting Japanese ginger garnish uses strips of mature ginger pickled in the left over brine from pickled sour plums, it has no sugar, very sour, salty, and deep red. Often used as a general condiment, on stir fried noodles and such. In Japan this red type is more common than the young sweet type which is only seen with sushi.
Great descriptions! I put grated ginger in my smoothies every morning, and lemon water in the evening.
The Thumb downers probably don’t like ginger. I’m not a big fan of it either, but family members do and that’s why I grow it. Big thumbs up Mark great video.
Excellent video. Always a joy to watch your gardening tips. Warm regards from Munyonyo Kampala Uganda 🇺🇬
"Gingaah" I'm Dutch but I am absolutely pronouncing it like this from now on.
Arent alot of Australians Dutch?
🤣
@@ericbriglia2869 nah
Molly Smith I’m from Boston,n he’s definitely pronouncing it properly❤️
Aha Molly, dan kan ik wel aan jou vragen wat hij nou in dat steelpannetje had, (wat hij erover heen strooide) ik heb het wel tig keer terug geluisterd , maar kwam er niet uit... Is het bij jou inmiddels al gelukt? Die van mij stonden in een pot (binnen) bij de verwarming, het ging 4 maanden best goed, maar toen werden de stengels bruin en vielen ze om...enig idee?
Brilliant! I'm gonna try it out! Toast some bread. Put olive oil, a heap of ginger powder, then some marmalade on it or honey. All in that order. You'll be hooked on it!
Its kinda interesting to see younger versions of Mark from Self Sufficient Me. When I get some space I will be growing some garden in raised beds too - Thanks for sharing all your experience with us in your video's
Thank you! You gave me back the spirit to grow ginger and produce ginger ale, and with all your knowledge and tips i'm sure you will give my girlfriend back her energy to start planning the spring garden as the snow starts to melt!
