Growing Green Beans - Tips on How to Grow These Tasty
Greens
Green Beans have a lot of names, whether they're called
string beans, green beans or snap beans, they are one of
a farmer's favorite and most productive garden plants.
They're also versatile, edible both cooked and fresh
from the garden.
To find success with your green beans, plant them in
warm soil (above 65 degrees F). They like sun, so plant
them somewhere they'll see at least six hours of it a
day. You can even grow them in a container in your
window.
Green bean seeds will be ready between 50-70 days from
the time you plant them, so think ahead if you want to
enjoy them all summer. Stagger planting by a couple of
weeks to guarantee you'll have tasty green beans for
your salads and casseroles all season long.

While heavy on salt and kind of high in calories, bacon
has no trans fat at all. Several slices of bacon are
healthier in terms of calories, salt, fat and
cholesterol than a hot dog, hamburger or glazed donut. |

With the longest days of the year now past, it's time to think
about days with less daylight. Why not go green, and
save 30% on your electric
costs at the same time? The new energy-efficient bulbs
are no longer swirly-shaped, but look just like
ordinary incandescent bulbs. And they don't have the
cold, harshness of LEDs. Sylvania's energy-efficient
bulbs are warm and friendly.
Summer is the ideal time to begin practicing our 3 R's,

There's no argument that teas make great main-meal-dish
seasonings.
 But
what kind you use can make a big difference as to how
good your dish is for you.
According to a consensus of San Diego Convention Endocrinologists,
four cups of black tea increases your diabetes
risk and induces Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) a long-term
disease that leads to inflammation of the joints and
surrounding tissues. Their
suggestion? Season with black tea, or green tea, which also increases blood circulation.

Great-tasting Mint has
healing powers long known to settle nervous stomachs.
Whether served in a tea drink or added to Spring Rolls, mint is a better part of
cuisine here, in India, China, Europe and the Middle
East.
Mint eases stomach aches and has shown great
promise at easing irritable bowel syndrome discomfort,
even slowing growth of many harmful bacteria
and fungi. The antifungal properties of mint are thought to
play a role in the treatment of asthma and other allergy
conditions as well.
It is even thought that mint may have benefits as an
anti-cancer food-- mint is known to contain a phyto-nutrient called perillyl alcohol, shown in studies
on animals to prevent the formation of colon, skin and
lung cancer. Further study is needed to see if this
important benefit extends to humans.
Mint has often been mis-labeled as pricy. We maintain
it’s not only cheap, it is with very little effort almost
free. Once planted, mint is hardy as a weed.
Herbs are fantastic in
the garden, even better when they serve duel purposes.
Before fall fades, your mint and many other herbs can be
moved to an elongated
planter.
They become attractive outdoor/indoor table
decorations when surrounded by a few pieces of
interesting tree bark, drift wood, or sea shells.

someone as smart as you who could use a hand up in this
economy? Why not forward this invaluable newsletter to them?
Doing others a favor is good for our Karma.
