That happened to the 5 varieties of garlic I grew this year. Sharpie is no good!
I use pencil on white plastic plant tags. It doesn't wash away or fade and I can erase it later and reuse the tags.

Sharpie is forever on a golf ball (although wd40 will clean it off). I figured it would be the same on plastic garden labels but no. In the end, all my garlic is great but I wanted to do comparisons to hone in on what I like the best.I use pencil on white plastic plant tags.

Chili garlic...Vietnamese lumpia. Cheapest and one of most common street stand snacks in NL.
Comes with standard question: “With sweet sauce or hot sauce?” Left is sweet, right is hot (sambal). Just veggies in these.

Okay. I'm just going to continue to mail it to myself with a Justin Hale return address.![]()
I don’t know if it’s because the heavy influence of indonesian kitchen here, or chili garlic being too hot for the average white dutch, or both, but usually the hot sauce at a vietnamese lumpia stand here (almost always a vietnamese guy or couple) and at any delivery service is sambal oelek. I know one that still has that white lettered and green cap bottle with chili garlic, used to be pretty standard. Chili garlic is hotter, darker red, more white chunks, and has a less runny consistency, unlike mine, which is definitely sambal oelek.Chili garlic...
That is part of the Yuxiang style. I used doubanjiang, sambal olek, garlic ginger, zhenjiang black vinegar, soy and sesame oil.I like black vinegar with the eggplants
Our figs seem fairly ripe, some are starting to dry out and the birds and bugs are moving in fast. I dont blame them, they are delicious. My mother in-law will take some but it looks like we will have a lot more shortly. I guess we will dry the left-overs out. Does anyone have anything they like to do with them?

Right on thanks! My mother in-law brought over soft goat cheese and we drizzled a little honey on them, so good.Slice and drizzle with some balsamic.
These are different though. Desert King. They survive Oregon winters well.
Yours look like turkey figs.
Also delicious and great for jam.
