  • Yes, pressure cooker and pressure canner work the same. They use high pressure to reach higher temperatures - that higher temperature kills more bacteria.

    A pressure canner still might be useful, because most pressure cookers aren't as big as the canners. I only use the cooker because I already had one way before I thought about canning stuff and because here in germany most canning still is done with hot water rather than in steam and therefore pressure canners are harder/more expensive to come by.

  • Yes there is a zone system also for Germany (and yes you guessed right) - I am sadly in zone 6, so it probably will be pretty hard for me to grow these..

    I hope yours grows well!

  • That's sick! Now I also want to plant one. What climate does it need?

  • I tried once. Wasn't going well, because they didn't have enough light. But I think it's still worth a shot, lavender is just great and if it work you've got yourself a nice lavender plant.

  • I own a pressure cooker. Works the same as a pressure canner as far as I know, just isn't as big. It isn't as bad as you think. The first time I also was a bit nervous but it really is worth eating your own canned food.

  • To be honest, its the first time for me growing them. So I'll still have that experience. But I heard that you can "just pop them open" when they're ripe. But that maybe also depends on the specific species.

    I plan to can them, use them as side dished (just cooked and with some herbs and spices) or in different chilli.

  • Defederating in this situation means (to my very limited understanding). Users on lemmy.world can see posts from beehaw.org, they also can interact with the posts/comments. Those interactions just don't show up on beehaw.org, so that they don't have to moderate as much.

    Reddit charging a metric ton of cash for their api is more or less if you would have to pay (the creator of lemmy) for each user if you decide to create your own instance (lemmy.world, beehaw.org and whatnot).

  • Is there already an issue where something like that gets tracked?

  • I just noticed that I confused pea with bean. That in the picture is a bean.. My bad.

    Anyway: Its a sup species of Vica Faba I don't know the english word for it. It's a bean that you seed in late autumn and can harvest earlier than most beans.

  • And I am replying from a completely different instance. Isn't the Fediverse great? (Even though I also noticed that comments from others on my own posts do not show up in my own instance)
