I have second year plants in planters. They've done well, but I think I need to get them into the ground. Any pointers on when to move, how to treat the ground, etc? You can kind of make out the planters in the picture. Thanks!

I want to start a cider for my wife for Christmas. She loves extra dry stuff like the Crispin Brut. Any suggestions as far as yeasts and apples/apple juices to use on a one gallon batch? Again, just looking to start it, not complete it, by Christmas.

I've not added any nutrients. Suggested nutrients? I've not heard of degassing. After racking, I put the stopper in. Put my thumb over it, shook it once to get some bubbles, and put the airlock on while there was still pressure behind my thumb.

And if it is, what is your suggested next step?

OG was 1.11 Gravity now reads as 1.04. I used distilled water because my local water tastes horrible. Again, first time so be gentle, lol. Think I cleared the O2 before I sealed it. Should I pitch again to get it running? Very open to any suggestions.

UPDATE: 28 hours after racking, still no yeast activity.

40 oz. of wildflower honey, 1 half quart strawberries, one pint blueberries. Fruits were put in juicer, juice put in honey and less than one gallon of distilled water. Yeast added. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I have a melomel made with 4184 Wyeast. It bubbled along for 3 weeks and now has stopped. I racked it 30 minutes ago. Should I wait to see if I get more activity? If I don't, should I add more yeast and / or honey? First try at this so suggest away.

Hi, my name is Patrick. I started drinking craft beers in 2006. After learning so much, meeting so many great people, seeing the boom of the industry, etc., I decided to try my hand at brewing. Started my first brew, an Irish stout from a kit, today. Also working on my Cicerone certification.

I told a guy I was thinking about getting into home brew. He said to check this out. So here I am.
