What do you use?

Exactly:

  • It reheats food quickly with a better texture than the microwave
  • It keeps food warm once I've cooked it and i can use it to keep part of dinner warm while I cook the rest
  • It cooks food evenly because it is a convection oven, and starts the process quicker because it is small
  • It replaces my toaster
  • I can bake one thing in the oven (fish potatoes, broccoli) while the other cooks in the air fryer, especially helpful when they have vastly different cook times and temperatures

Agree with autumn, you really need to try some mosquito dunks down there, it could really help!

Agreed, I'd enjoy an active coffee sub.

It is beyond what you asked, but I learned a lot of my basics watching YouTube videos.

I've mentioned it in the weekly thread but these are sitting an inch deep in nutrients and water. They drink it down, and I refill it when they need it. Its a hydroponic method called kratky. I don't have a hose or a lot of room so this might be a good solution for me. Excited to see how it goes!

I cut my indoor basil and mint plants way back because they were making a mess. I hope they bounce back! This week, I'll go out looking for a couple pepper plants to try kratky for the first time outdoors. Basically, I make a big nutrient solution in a bucket, I leave the plant's dirt slightly submerged in the water, and hopefully the plant roots into the nutrients and grows like crazy. I have a small backyard and no hose hookup so I want this to be a simple solution to grow red peppers or poblanos' as well as a spicy pepper like a jalapeño or Thai chili. Step 1 is finding the seedlings!

I like this guy's explanation of how to do it! Happy to provide info as well.

I love it, I should do that!

I really encourage it when space is an issue. I have a basil plant that's been going for about a year, I've changed the water twice and that's it! I reuse peanut butter containers and use cotton balls for a growing medium. Kratky is really easy! I can't even keep basil in a pot alive, but this guy is great.
