Peppers are rocking. I've got a lot of these in pots. I'm not a big potted plant guy, but figured out that if you give them more afternoon shade the better they will do. Most of my pots are loaded down with peppers except the Naga Beast Carmel and Dragon Breath. They have a ton of blooms right now but slow to produce. I've switched to a different fertilizer mix I'm going to test out for the rest of the season for the potted plants. I've kept the pots behind the taller plants in the raised beds where they get morning through early afternoon sun then shaded by the taller plants in the beds. And as a guy they keeps a pretty well maintained lawn just sitting these buy the fence and not keeping the area up was driving me crazy. So I moved them out to let the area dry up a little so I can mow and weedeat it then I'll move them back. And the tomatoes are still rocking. Going top left to right.

Chocolate Scotch Bonnet has been quoted as the best pepper to cook with. If you have some seeds to share then I'd sure appreciate some. Those KS Lemon Starburst look cool too. Nice collection.

Tried the KS tonight. It was fantastic. Scotch Bonnet heat, but more of citrus flavor, vs the SB floral. Heat was intense, but only lasted a few minutes. It's a good.

Derek, you are making me want to go all out again on peppers. This year I toned it down to bells, jalapenos, chilis pequin, habaneros and just planted a ghost pepper. The habs have been doing great and I can eat those raw now so we will see what the ghost can do.

Pots were the way to go this year- rain really ruined my spring garden this year, and my peppers drowned, even on raised rows.

Having a little better luck with summer garden. Peaches coming in nicely now - the ones on the right are huge, a different kind!: Cantaloupes & Melons are loving the heat, and are finally coming along: Cukes & summer squash coming in nicely now too: (the short/fat ones became refrigerator pickles - thx Bill!! )

Channeled my grandmother today and made 2.5 quarts of salsa. My mom was out from Alabama and brought a big bag of apples from trees i planted when I was probably 10 (25 years ago). They were wormy but I peeled and trimmed and made a couple quarts of applesauce for the kids. Good day. Gotta be honest and say I got a little emotional thinking about my grandparents during the process.

Good day. Gotta be honest and say I got a little emotional thinking about my grandparents during the process. That looks so good. My cousin's grandma (on the other side of his family) always made all of their mexican food from scratch, I always looked forward to eating over there. She always made lots of salsa, and would always make a special batch for my cousin and I, because she knew we liked a spicier salsa than the rest. I probably miss the salsa, tamales, and tortillas the most. Can't beat any of those hand made from scratch. I need to see if him and his wife got any of her recipes before she passed away.
