I was curing green olives and they started out a bright, lime green color. By the end of 10 days, they turned into an "olive" green.... any spots that were still bright green were still bitter, and any of the olive colored spots were no longer bitter.

I would like to propagate new plants and have tried several methods for taking cuttings, but none have worked for me. Do you know of an efficient and predictable way of starting new plans? I was even thinking of trying seeds, but the seed is so thick it might take forever for the outer shell to rot. Any thoughts?

I tried the soak them in water (changed daily) method and after 4 days i noticed a lot of "bruising". So I put them into a brine solution and over night they ALL went spotty. My fear is that this is a bacteria which has infected all the olives. I can't find any pictures of what olives look like when they are infected. Can you help please??

Did read about using a raw egg for testing the brine for the correct amount. When are the spices added? With the brine.
