Fermented tea made from leaves of garden and wild plants (master class)

Grade grand?

Ampelnaya, California star.

did not understand ... on the loggia a barrel-steam room?

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, so I thought that the first photo is ivy! Variegated or green?

Oksana, is this a bell?

Yes, there is a red bell and on the first photo there is also Mishrum. Yellow-not very much-thin-walled! Satri:

Oksana, in the greenhouse, I plant peppers in the first row, in the background, eggplants, peppers and eggplants in a checkerboard pattern, until I grew them, I also thought that it was necessary to arrange dances with tambourines, but no !! everything turned out to be simple, just feed and water.

did not understand ... on the loggia a barrel-steam room?

Yeah, we lower the blinds, open the windows, turn on the steam generator ... - and nirvana ... And before and after - our "country" tea.

[Galina Iv.]

Galina Iv., see the photo above under the spoler, then I will catapult
Linadoc, nothing you are having fun!

Linadoc, you are not enjoying yourself!

These are neighbors from the house opposite (20m) having fun, and we are improving our health. And steam is good for the smelly.

[Linadoc]

Linadoc,

see the photo above under the spoler, I will then catapult

Oksan, do not catapult anything. What a beauty you are! And your tomatoes are a feast for the eyes.
Girls, while I was busy with cake and bread, you have already scribbled 2 pages. you can't keep up. Such beauty on their windows-loggias showed that I was directly insecure. I seem to grow up every year. And I'm happy with the harvest. But I graze the seedlings myself. I only planted marigolds and summer dahlias through seedlings. And last season I didn't bother at all - I immediately sowed seeds into the soil. True, until they ascended and the threat of frost went away, they covered everything with a film. Cool flowers were fat. I didn't get such seedlings.
Galya, Lina, Oksana, I'm afraid that I will not reach you with my southern windows and crazy daily temperature drop. And I have east windows only in an unheated room.

I sleep - not combed there
I’m not special, I’m playing around for fun.
I always plant marigolds in the ground under a film or spunbond - there is not enough space on the windows. The tomatoes are big, yes; but I fell out of love with such. Firstly, I can't even eat half in a salad (cucumber weed) for three, and secondly, they require care when they are poured (regular watering, etc.) I can’t provide and they crack, and thirdly they break under their own weight, so it's a shame. Losing I always plant medium and not very large, but always many different varieties. I generally like to plant and see what grows
But an unheated place will be very useful in the spring, when there will already be 15-17 grams in the afternoon so that the tomatoes do not overgrow.

Ksun, adorable! She looks like her own avka. Well, I have neither a balcony nor a loggia, so we get by with what we have, but I sow asters in the winter, right in the greenhouse, last year it was in January, I choose a place so that later it does not interfere with planting seedlings (I need a little space) , but then the aster seedlings are wonderful, they do not stretch, they are plump. This year you can't get into the greenhouse, I'll sow it as we get to the dacha (I think April), only I'll freeze the aster seeds in the freezer.

I plant all annuals and perennials at the end of April in a greenhouse, along the edge of the garden. First, I cover it with spunbond. Or in pots and put them in a greenhouse and make them a micro-greenhouse. Somehow I sowed viola at home, in January, some strings came out, then they died, and in the greenhouse with a bang.
Oh, Oksana, well, beautiful! Do not try to leave us! Here I looked, I looked intently ...like not blind, but where the extra kg - I never saw)))

Let's go back to tea. (The current where everyone disappears today, hasn't it covered you?)
The first season gave some vectors of steps for the next season. We take a thick notebook and begin to outline everything from the beginning to the end of the season and all the teas in different cans and mark the cans. (Ivan tea, fermentation for so many hours, how fermented-cut already or sausages, passed the freezer or not, where it was dried, date). And do not mix the teas, as I did this year, then it will be possible to analyze each tea separately and find OWN.
These are my conclusions from the work done in 2014.

Good girl, you are my analyst! And I did not mix it, I have it signed and dated. How are you, Checkmark?

[Galina Iv.]

Galina Iv., I agree about tea, you need to write everything down, and it is better not to mix tea, especially the one that was fermented mono. We have already discussed that bouquet fermentation tea is more interesting than mono tea. Therefore, when a bunch of different leaves are thrown in the refrigerator, it is better to ferment in a crowd. Next year I want to make lemongrass again. I read it useful for sleepy scops owls with low pressure.
At the expense of extra pounds: Checkmark, I saw tomatoes the size of a face, the tomatoes are not small, hence the conclusion: the face is also not small. How are those such logic? I'm always on the alert with them
Today we repeat the New Year!

tea of ​​bouquet fermentation, it turns out more interesting than mono tea.

and this must be checked personally

[Loksa]

Loksa, Oksana, I mean not to mix mono, for example June tea with October tea)

Gal, and I don't even have June, I have the first August. Wandered a bit late on this site.

[Galino]

not combed there

And for me, so real beauty! Don't scratch it, if not, then don't comb it with all the scallops of the world. And here - so ruddy and glowing, just a liquid apple!

We take a thick notebook

Already found a hefty one, for the drawings, the devil's release years!

all teas in different cans and label the cans

So I think what such different cans are suitable ... I have tin ones from under Mabrok large-leaf, but tremendous, where can I get so many leaves? Or then adjust the glass 500-800 grams?
And another question for an amateur: girls, how do you label banks? Do you tape the paper with the date and on the can? Or can you find rectangular adhesive labels (yes, such that later from the can it is easy, not with meat, to be torn off)?

If it works, I would try more leaves of the same species, but different months. Smart people say that autumn strawberries are especially good as tea. But in medicinal harvesting, the leaves are taken during flowering ...

Eh, cherry leaves where to nadyat. Even parents' cherries are still quite small - it's a pity to take the leaves.
But I'll make tea from the apple tree! Wow, shrug your shoulder! ... * whisper * If Galino the invitation is still in force

By the way, can anyone have new alternative methods for drying leaves in nature? I saw over the fire in a cauldron, but still have any ideas?

Next year I want to make lemongrass again. I read it useful for sleepy scops owls with low pressure.

Oksana, I envy! I also want to wind lemongrass tea, because I am such a sleepy scopsweed in life, and all my lemongrass, an infection, lives in MO and all the foliage drops on the ground in autumn.

Nasten, so about the leaves, walk around the neighbors, now I only notice the neighboring foliage, it's a pity for mine, I have bushes

very young, and more or less from neighbors, well, I rip them off, with consent, of course. And I use cans from under coffee, they close tightly, and here in the "coin" I cut off New Year's cans with coffee, do not believe me, I grabbed as many as 5 pieces (they have a price of 120 rubles), my husband immediately understood - "for tea, yes ? "And you need to cook a lot of cans, so that later you do not beg for people.

[Helen]

Helen, * whisper again * but I'm in St. Petersburg, in this stone jungle, come in large numbers - not local. Besides Check marks, which, a kind soul, has already invited me to all possible events at the dacha, and there are no neighbors with foliage, since there is no dacha itself*

So this tick will make you plow like a bee, you will find out how much a pound is dashing, in the sense of tea. And you come to me in the north, I have a dacha-across the road (10 meters) woods, berries, mushrooms (if any), I won't make it work, though I don't have apples and pears.

[Happy old New Year!]

Girls, hello! Phew ... I saw off the guests. I fed and watered. I have been shitting since yesterday - I prepared a bunch of sweets. The guests barely pushed off. I gave them a lot of different teas and cider according to Linin's recipe. Lina, thanks from my guests for the cider recipe. They listened to everything carefully, took the recipe and the bottle too. Next year, under my strict guidance, they are going to make cider and currant and raspberry wine. So, Linochka, thank you very much again for the cool recipe. I drink and admire this masterpiece. Now I'm not the only one who appreciated it. And in Moscow, and in Smolensk, and in St. Petersburg bottles went as gifts in addition to tea.
Girls, I congratulate everyone Happy old New Year! I wish you good and all the best

how do you label banks? Do you tape the paper with the date and on the jar? Or can you find rectangular adhesive labels (yes, such that later on from the can easily, not with meat, they rip off)?

Nastya, everything is very simple - you take masking tape or a roll of paper for pasting windows in hardware stores. Easy to stick, removable one or two without problems and traces. I sign with a marker.
here is scotch



but like glue. It can be on the lid, it can be on the side, you can attach it to the bottom of the can - as you like.

but I'm in St. Petersburg, in this stone jungle, come in large numbers - not local.

Nastya, another option for extracting leaves for tea. Most of your friends or neighbors have summer cottages. You ask them to bring you leaves from each trip. Then you treat them to ready-made tea. I have a Muscovite friend. She has no dacha. And time for a trip to friends at the dacha too. But she has her tea every year. She asks her colleagues at work to bring her fireweed leaves and garden sauces from their dachas and their surroundings. On Sunday evenings and Monday mornings, these leaves are dragged to her from all sides of the Moscow region. She then makes teas for a whole week (keeps the leaves in the freezer). And so every week. Itself with tea and her fellow neighbors turn out to be fat.
And don't say that you are uncomfortable asking. Away with these speeches. It’s inconvenient, you know what, to sleep on the ceiling, and so on ... I've arrived in the village 3.5 years ago. I only have apple trees, pears, plums, strawberries, currants from my sprouts. I take the rest from the neighbors. Brazenly went and began to ask. Nobody drove away. They allowed me and said for the future that I didn't even ask, went into their garden and took everything I needed.

But an unheated place will be very useful in the spring, when there will already be 15-17 grams in the afternoon so that the tomatoes do not overgrow.

Oksana, I get it! This means that my verandas will do. Thank you .

Let's go back to tea. We take a thick notebook and begin to outline everything from the beginning to the end of the season and all the teas in different cans and mark the cans.

Checkmark, you're right - be sure to take it and write it down! I also have thoughts on changing the fermentation conditions. But first I have to try it myself. I will experiment on fireweed. If it works out, then I will bring the results to everyone.
Yes, girls, while you walk, relax. In March-April, I will start loading you with theory. So that by joint reflections come to the best methods of making tea. Who is ready?

[Galina Iv.]

Galina Iv., Skidded today - well after lunch everything calmed down.
Got it about mixing tea. I still keep in glass jars and plastic boxes. As I did, I keep it, but sometimes I add blackberry for aroma when brewing.

So I think what such different banks are suitable ...

Nastyush, Luda has already answered you, do not throw away the glass jars and order cans for yourself on March 8, I have already accepted the order, wait))

So this checkmark will make you plow like a bee

or else !! and all that she, this Lenusya knows, a flair like Bobik

has already invited me to all the possible events at the dacha, and there are no neighbors with foliage, because there is no dacha itself *

Yes, the route has long been drawn up

You ask them to bring you leaves from each trip. Then you treat them to ready-made tea.

aaaaaa .. we didn’t agree, why deprive me of guests ??

Who is ready?

Always ready!!!

Always ready!!!

Well done! Keep it up !

aaaaaa .. we didn’t agree, why should I deprive guests?

Gal, there is never so much tea! While Nastya is resting with you, her acquaintances will gather leaves. So don't panic, everything will be fine.

So don't panic, everything will be fine.

eh, minx, look at me!

Girls, and I composed a delicious cake for the Old New Year. Two cakes - a sponge cake on the yolks from leka (blessed memory), and 2 - from her "Rakhat" cake - meringue with peanuts. Cream - chocolate custard with condensed milk from Larchik79
Not cake, but delicious. The guests did not calm down until they had eaten everything. I managed to take only one piece

eh, minx, look at me!

Checkmark, look, look ...

Luda, what a beauty it is. From here you can see how delicious it is. I can't do this

Lyudochka, masterpiece!

[Lenochka!]

And you come to me in the north, I have a dacha-across the road (10 meters) forests, berries, mushrooms (if any)

Lenochka! Thank you so much for the invitation! Eh, I have never been in your places, only flew from above on airplanes. It's a dream to visit. But then one thing, then another ... And our forum is a magical place, you never know where you will bring it next time.

Nastya, everything is very simple

Semyon Semyonich! Thanks for the advice!

Who is ready?

I'm ready!:)

And don't say that you are uncomfortable asking.

I still have to work and work on myself ... I better go to Gala for field work, all the benefits are among my own, who understand.

Thanks for the advice! I am saving up glass jars!

Yes, the route has long been drawn up

I still have to work and work on myself ... I better go to Gala for field work, all the benefits are among my own, who understand.

Nastya, one does not interfere with the other - work on oneself and field work at Galochka. Here, you are not my student, I would give you such tasks to develop courage. For the development of communication skills and overcoming shyness she gave her the following, for example, tasks:

1. Ask 30 passers-by of any age, status, gender where you can buy a pink crocodile.
2. Ask a passerby to tie a lace on the sneaker (take your hands with some objects).
And my most brilliant student (by the way, also Nastya) complicated her tasks. for example, she asked me to scratch her back on the bus. In general, then they also made a written report to me. A couple of months and everyone who completed the assignments became very brave ...

downloaded, it still does not open ..

Did you download mine or from the Internet? Installed on your computer?
