Its all good, always another day. Refi is slow process, cannot build a fire under their asses so we must wait and you know good things happen for those who wait. Remaining positive. May have a line on Key Lime Pie clones over in the bay area. We certainly appreciate all your efforts, do not give up on us yet LOL

Will be bringing some limes from this 40+ year old tree that lives at the community garden where I lease a veggie garden spot. Bust out the Huradura, its Tequila Time.View attachment 3689073

Is that lime tree a seedling tree? If so, you can plant the seeds and get the same fruit. If not, you can root a cutting, or graft it on to some root stock. I'm buying some lime trees at Lowe's tomorrow {assuming they have some}. I have a few citrus trees, but we do get down in the teens once in a while, so it's a challenge finding the ones that will handle the cold.

The old lime tree was no doubt Nursery stock. Her fruit when ripened turns yellow but her insides are lime green. It sits on what used to be a citrus farm, mostly lemons. The power utility bought the farm and placed high voltage pylons' on it. Then they leased it to the city for the local gardeners. It can get below freezing on occasion here, never in the 20's though, morning comes and we are right back up to the 60's by 10am. It gets plenty of full sun and water. She produces hundreds of pounds each year. So many they will rot on the ground. I gather the good ones, squeeze the juice out of them and freeze it. Good stuff.

I've got a few tomato cuts in my five gallon bucket rooter right now. I have Yellow Pear, Pruden's Purple and Cherub tomatoes. I've seen roots on a couple of them.

Mine is a fountain pump with a 360 sprinkler head in a five gallon bucket. I have six 3" holes in the lid to fit the net cups. I set the timer for 30 minutes on and 30 minutes off and let it run. But last year I floated my cuttings in cut down foam coffee cups in a aluminium roasting pan with a bubbler in the bottom. About half of them rooted.

I would go with water in jars until you see roots. Change the water every 2-3 days. I have noticed that some herbs, like basil, root fast and easy as fuck straight into dirt but some take a little longer. Chilis should root fairly fast I think?
