    Great job! Check out watering times per MDC( mo dept conservation) I’m pretty sure they state it’s best to not water at night. Insects are drawn to it & it can cause roots to mold or become infected. Again thanks for the video.

    Dear Sir, first, I have given this video a thumbs up, and subscribed, number 135. I really liked that you gave measurements and a cut list. Also I have never liked the "Burned" look, this is the nicest coloring I have ever seen. I wondered if it was caused by the fact that the wood you used was treated. It came out really well. That project can be done with recycled pallet wood too. I have plenty of that. On a totally different subject...I'm a register nurse who will retire in August. I have seen some terrible things that could have been avoided with a little forethought. Your beard is wonderful. I would only ask that you will find a way to keep it out of the way of things,...anything that rotates. Braid it or somehow keep it away from the power tools, even a hand held drill. Please be safe. My best to you and your family, Katie Anderson RN Windsor CT

    Burning is the best way to damage your cast iron. Though that was bad enough, then you used a wire wheel. Lye will remove 100 percent of crud. You left old crud inside cooking area. You can do what you want to your pans, but please teach people the right way.

    I wouldn't recommend leaving iron in vinegar for longer than one day I've found around 10-12 hours is plenty any more than that it will eat the good iron I've found too with the newer field cast iron a 30 min stack in vinegar helps the seasoning come out more even

    I want to be able to re-season on the stove but I just got a new smooth top stove and don’t want to ruin it. I guess I could season it in the stove with an old rack I kept and put a large baking sheet Inder the pan? Paid to much to ruin my new top. lol. Could I do the same thing on a nuwave single induction burner? Thx

  • @AmenAcresHomestead
    @AmenAcresHomestead3 ай бұрын

    We have a glass top and do it on the top with no problem. You can season or re-season cast iron anywhere you can heat up the cast iron. The general Idea that it takes to season cast iron is you warm up the metal the pores open up and you interduces oil and when the metal cools back down the oil gets trapped and become hard and allows to be non stick. As for using the nuwave i would say give it a try i think it would work.

    Thanks for the video. I have many old vintage cast iron skillets. I keep a lye bath and a vinegar bath in case I need them. I generally season cast iron in the oven, generally 4-6 coats of seasoning, then I use the skillet every day for the next 30 days. I make my own paste which I use to season my pans.

    My mom used to make it a lot when I was a child, it's really good on warm biscuits, grapes cost quiet costly and had a hard time growing grapes, but we had apple trees so mom would make apple jelly and apple butter. It brings back memories for me. I have tried store bought jellies and they don't taste right. I plan on trying to use frozen orange/pineapple juice, I think I video it and see how it turns out.

Your video will surely help me here. Done 4 seasoning so far and God I love my lodge now. I used canola oil coz that is all I had left but will definetly look for grapeseed oil. Got few question here...since french do not keep their lard fat (I will from now 😊) how long can it be stored and used? Other question I love love love how you displayed your cast iron skillets on your wall, what have you done so that your wall don't colapse coz that must be very heavy, right? Once again thank you..and..I almost forgot Happy New Year to you both !! Take care, Sebastian from Paris, France.
