Time to fertilize?

Time to fertilize?

Bell peppers that will be raised indoors for crossbreeding. They have gotten their first true leaves if I'm looking at these pictures correctly. I looked at the fertilizer that I purchased to encourage root and flowering without them getting humongous.

I didn't realize at first that this was fertilizer that you put in the soil not in the water though. So I'm hoping it's right. It says for a six inch pot, which these are, I use 3/4 of a teaspoon of the pellets. I really hope that this is correct. I played it safe and put a little bit less about half a teaspoon in each pot. Did I do it right? Or did I just kill them

Urban Beaver on Empress and Ellice

Last time I saw this tree a few months ago, there was a basket around it probably to keep the Beavers off. But people kept putting garbage in it like it was a rubbish bin so I guess they removed the trash and the cage basket, and the Beavers took advantage.

Several of the other trees were similarly treated and there was one completely down and several stumps.

When I made roux previously with Extra virgin olive oil, it tasted like that and I assumed string flavour.

But now Ive tried canola oil, and I've realize it tastes like either the flour or the oil. - not just now but last year when I deep fried morels. (I thought the flavour was the morels)

I've tried making a deeper roux to ensure it wasn't raw flour taste, but the flavour remains.

So I am uncertain what to do when I use my roux for say, chicken gravy. I use salt, pepper and chicken juice/stock and it doesn't taste like chicken.

What am I missing? What is the secret, to both the gravy and the battered morels?

Gravy: 1 tbsp canola, 1 tbsp flour. About 1/2 to 3/4 cup stock. I timed it for 4.5 minutes last time.

Morel batter: egg, flour, egg/flour/milk batter (I think. It's been a year)

Thanks!
