Answer A: What is the best method for storing a 'pre-mixed baking mix' in a camper for long periods?
Your question asked about opened packages. I'm going to offer a bit of a frame challenge. Don't store opened packages long-term in your trailer; rotate them into your kitchen and use them, and buy another unopened package for the trailer. If you're asking about long-term storage then it sounds l...

Comment Post #276511 My posts here are taken at aquariums and thus arguably not "outdoors". I do have some pictures taken at the aquarium in Eilat, where they put the *people* in the tank (in the Red Sea) and let the fish swim around free. But it was 15 years ago with an inexpensive digital camera of that vintage, so.....

One more even though I'm late. I took this picture at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago in September 2019 using a ZTE Axon 7 cell phone.

Oops, I forgot about this, so even though it's now August I'll share. I took this picture at the Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium in October 2015 using my then-current cell phone.

Answer A: Planted cherry tomatoes too close together; can I still recover?
I saw the advice here to kill the smaller plant, and elsewhere I saw the suggestion that I could transplant if I were careful. I decided to try that three days after posting this question. They both survived and yesterday I saw fruit forming on both for the first time. I took this picture today. ...

Comment Post #275829 SE makes ads available for communities to use as they will. Community votes are supposed to decide which ads are shown. It would be wrong for outsiders who aren't active on the community to try to affect that vote (in either direction), but for communities where people here are or were also active ...

Comment Post #275827 @Olin different sites use ads in different ways. Some promote their own community resources, like a blog or question sandbox. Some promote resources the community considers useful to its own community, like reference libraries and tools. If the community here was founded by the community there, th...

Question Advertise Outdoors on The Great Outdoors?
Stack Exchange sites that are not beta support community-curated ads. The Great Outdoors is one such site, and obviously there's some support on meta there for this community, so have y'all considered running an ad for Outdoors Codidact on The Great Outdoors SE? You wouldn't be the first Codidact c...

Comment Post #275806 The data import wasn't to give the illusion of anything; it was to allow participants to continue here what they started over there. Each site decides what, if any, content to import from SE (when there's a linked SE community, which there won't always be).

Question Planted cherry tomatoes too close together; can I still recover?
Two weeks ago I planted two small cherry-tomato seedlings ("tidy treats" variety; the description used words like "small" and "compact") into one 10" pot. I now know that's too close; I'm a beginner. My question is about recovering from this mistake now, two weeks later. Is it still practical to t...

Comment Post #75009 I've seen ready-to-eat chicken in foil pouches, as opposed to cans, at the grocery store. I've never eaten one so I don't know if they're any good, but they're shelf-stable and sized for individual portions.

Comment Post #74990 Thanks for the advice about the pot. The shared tenancy there is temporary (waiting for some more pots to arrive), because the original containers from the nursery were definitely too small.

Question How should I support a droopy basil seedling?
Last year one of my CSA boxes contained a basil seedling in a 4" starter pot. I'd never grown herbs before, but I transplanted it to a pot, took care of it, and had a tasty bounty all summer. This year I ordered a couple seedlings from the same farm that had supplied the CSA. They arrived two da...

Question Are gardening questions on-topic?
Are questions about gardening on-topic on this site? It's "outdoors", but not the kinds of outdoor activity that most questions seem to be about. I know that over on SE there's another site for gardening, but I wasn't active on either that site or The Great Outdoors over there. Now, however, I'm h...

Comment Post #74891 I would imagine this depends a lot on age and history (e.g. a horse that just started biting versus one that has a pattern). But I don't know anything about horses; do those details matter? Should they be in the question?

Comment Post #74869 I suggested putting the title at the bottom for two reasons. First, I've often experienced, and seen signs of it from others, that what you think you're asking morphs as you write the question, so either you go back to fix the title or you end up with a mismatch not infrequently. Second, I had a conv...

Answer A: 2020 - May - Birds
In the spring of 2018 I was surprised to see a nest in the joint of a support beam on my back porch. I come and go through that door every day; I would have figured it would be too high-traffic. But there was a nest, and then there was a bird occupying it nearly full-time -- a bird who got angry an...
