The potato or tuber is a storage organ that is developed from the swelling at the end of an underground stem. Potatoes that are harvested before they mature are often called "new potatoes" or "early potatoes." We chippers are always happy when the "new potatoes" crop comes in from Florida. "New potatoes" almost always are an appetizing soft golden color. These potatoes have a thin tender skin, which is easily rubbed off during harvesting and handling.

If your potatoes are disintegrating when boiled, cook them 5 minutes less than you normally would and drain them quickly. If potatoes are produced during a very dry growing season, they will tend to have a higher than normal solid content and less moisture. When these are cooked, they absorb more water than usual and, as a result, fall apart at the end of cooking.

It is a myth that chlorine turns hair green because chlorine is a bleach. Rather, it is the presence of copper in your water that turns hair green because of the blue tarnish of copper combined with yellow (or blonde) hair. To prevent this, you can use a sequestering agent, which will help keep the copper ions in solution and prevent them from sticking to hair or other pool surfaces.

We recommend using SST Ultra Clear, a liquid solution that naturally helps to clear up the greenness. If the green water becomes stringy, then you have to deal with string algae. In this case it’s best to try to pull out and remove as much of the algae by hand as well as using a regular dosage of Ultra Clear. We even have a product to help remove the sludge you may encounter.

All you have to do is remove the nutrients, and the algae will subside. The algae themselves do a great job of removing nutrients, so spring blooms common in cold weather climates typically subside by themselves. This is because nutrients build up all winter and the first plants that can take advantage of them are the algae cells in the top layer of water as it starts to warm up in the spring. They’ll consume all the available nutrients and subside in a week or two.

Because turnips do not have a strong taste of their own and have almost the same texture and consistency, they tend to pick up the flavor of whatever they are cooked with. Make Turnip Salad (previously Potato Salad), fry them as fries, or au graten style. They are also wonderful in soups and stews.
