Apparently I have acquired a knack for this miniature gardening. That is not a cherry tomato my friends, the real deal along with a handful of those tiny jalapenos. Trying to decide which chip to put this salsa on.
Well, I give up. Someone sprayed along the side of our fence where our grapes, mandarin, orange and lemon plants were and while a couple might make it, the mandarin, grape and one lemon tree are beyond help.
For what ever reason though, the blueberries, loganberries and strawberries are doing fine.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.
Just transplanted kale, collards and Chinese cabbage in a couple of raised beds for our winter garden. Also direct seeded watermelon radishes and mustard in the same beds. Covered the beds with a plastic pipe frame and row cover to keep the flea beetles off. Still picking green beans, paddy pan squash, tomatoes,cucumbers, and lettuce. Got a flat with escarole , and several kinds of lettuce started.
nice looking plants, Peter! I just used this recipe to mix up a quart of habanero sauce, it's fermenting nicely. Only change I made was 3 tbsp of coconut sugar instead of 4 tbsp brown sugar.
Weather has been amazing here is So Calif so
decided to clean up the yard. Wanted to show a few pics of my compost
bin. It’s small but works great. I compost everything from the yard.
Second pic is of the amazing compost that I made. I have a pretty small
yard but still produce around 120 gallons of compost that I use in my
garden beds. Its amazing how many worms I have in my bins (yes I have 2). Super easy to do and the plants love it
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt
You know when you live in a crappy place when the only thing that will grow is corn, peas, apples, cherries, pumpkins, plums and peaches. Sometimes pears.
Things like cucumbers, watermelon and peppers are hit an miss. Mostly miss.

Just waiting for the red-winged blackbirds to arrive before planting peas and spinach
I was told to plant peas right after Saint Patrick's day. Same guy also told me it always snows at least one time after SP day......That was 30 years ago, and he was right....It might have only been a flurry, but it has always held true.
, We use thin wall pvc and row cover held on by snap clamps. Several places sell the clips. We have a shorter growing season here also because of our 3500 ft elevation. https://www.circoinnovations.com/copy-of-snap-clamps

You always seem to have the most thoughtful and best laid out garden.Good show.
I need a jalapeno expert. Years ago a friend gave me a grocery bag full of them from his garden. They were the thickest walled and best tasting I have ever had. Anyone know of a really thick walled jalapeno? They were fairly uniform in size, about 3 inches and were a shiny and dark green.

Onions are doing great. Also planted a few tomato plants. Can’t wait to make some homemade ghost pepper salsa this year. Almost harvest time
