Tea-bone!Do you steep at all or just Tea Bag?
Do you use a whistling kettle or just wait until the steam blows?

That sounds awesome. I will go to my favorite little spot and get some. I'll let you know!
An addendum to this, I looked it up. I did not know that when I was fermenting my tea leaves I was essentially making this same thing. So yes, I do like it.

I imagine if we shared a house, there’d be “my” tea shelf and “your” tea shelf. Between us we have tea covered.
Do you have a plant or patch? I killed my last ones by letting them get too cold this past winter, but once I move I am gonna turn the tea tent back on!

About £1.
I have to grow mine indoors. I was actually kind of devastated, it was 6 years old, it was one of the last plants my mom helped me with. They're awesome. I wonder if the LEDs from weed are too much...
About a pound of onion rings for sure. 2 weeks

I tried but got very behind.
See, if you had not engaged in that bad behavior you would not now be suffering! Memento mori!

Camellia sinensis? Where did you get the cutting or seeds, and which tea was it?
So it was seeds (they took like 2 months to properly sprout, I don't know if that was normal) they were supposed to be sinensis sinensis! I have never seen the different kinds side by side. Lemme see if I can find the website that was on the packaging, it's been a while... I will try to remember it. We got the packet at a farmers market, but they had a website too...

There are 2 major varieties that tea is made from: C. sinensis sinensis and C. sinensis assamica; how they're processed determines the tea type.
It didn't taste like any tea I had had before, in the same way that weed I grow doesn't really taste like store bought. I think it tasted THE MOST like fermented green tea for me, so I think it was probably what it said on the label and I was never letting it get old? I didnt do much research, I gained my green thumb with weed...

Yeah, effectively leaves taken off plant and dried will end up being green tea; for the various black/brown teas there is sweating/fermentation/beating and bruising, a lot of processing
So I was stupid, but it was probably the right plant? :] yay, then I can hopefully find that damn pack
