Damn your strawberries are kicking mines ass. My daughter picked out a plant at lowe’s a while ago and it’s not taken off yet.
various vine crops and what not. Last night I planted a mixed tray of sunflowers corn and tomatoes. And some caladium bulbs I forgot I had that hopefully aren’t fried 
I’ve found a shit ton of worms! Red pink white. All sorts of sizes but nothing that big. I’ll keep feeding them hahaha
That and black soldier flies love it. We gather the fly larvae to feed to the chickens.
One thing I noticed yesterday and again today. The bottom left, darker green, gave off a rather skunk like odoriferous scent. I took them out for an extended play date with the one and off again sun before the storms today and noticed it even stronger. These were a gift, with unknow history.
Very nice pepper plants!
Yeah I have more peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, beans, peas, pumpkin, watermelon, onion and some other stuff in the works right now.Damn your strawberries are kicking mines ass. My daughter picked out a plant at lowe’s a while ago and it’s not taken off yet.
Love the plant variety though. I got some potatoes going, one volunteer beet
Thanks. I should probably prune them soon. Pick those little flower buds off and keep promoting growth. Get em started right before the heat kicks in and they start going nuts.
Ours have been in for a bit now. I did just get some Coolapeno Peppers and need to transplant. Our peas and corn are doing well too. Lots of beneficial watering from mother nature so far.
it's so hot here. No rain!
Hell yeah! Zone 9 survivors!Day 11!! Zone 9a close to 9b
Put them in the ground. One thing I learned from baby rabbits in my garden. Topped by rabbit leaves a “weak” spot where the plant can split later on, it’s happened to me a few times.instead of one main stalk you have two. Add wind and rain, disaster.
Top at the 5th node before the 6th. That's what I always read
and I top before I transplant.
That is a pretty plant.
And that's what I've been reading too. But I've also read to not over stress them and since I have no clue what these are, auto or otherwise and it seemed to take forever to get them to this point I don't want to go backwards. We grow a shit ton of veggies, peppers, tomato, beans, peas, you name it and I am not half as nervous with even our prized Cherokee Purps as I am with these. LOL Thanks for the reply.Top at the 5th node before the 6th. That's what I always read
Can u elaborate on the mix ur using ..I'm using straight ff soil...Greetings from So-Cal. Hope everyone's good. Got a new raised bed setup going this year. Just added some 2 year old compost and layered some soil over the top. Stocked up on some amendments and will fill the rest of it up in the first days of April. Until then I'm just chillin, enjoying the rain. Picked the strains I want to grow this year and will probably get those in the next couple of weeks. Until then it's just the waiting game.
I used some of the FF soil. But the rest is that cheap $3 a bag all purpose replacement soil and I amend it myself with bat guano, worm castings, blood and bone meal, and Pearlite. I'll amend them again probably in the 2nd week of July in preparation for the flowering season. But that's pretty much it.
