Day 170 - June 30, 2011 - No photos. Just a quick update. I actually had to water my peppers for the first time in probably a month. We have had ample rain this June so it wasn’t necessary. But it has been dry for about a week now with hot sunny weather and now a heat advisory for tomorrow with temps to go past 95. There is no rain in the forecast for the next 4 days. My peppers were just beginning to show some stress from the lack of water yesterday afternoon and with the forecast calling for even more heat and sun in the next few days, I decided to soak them down good since I will be gone camping during the coming heat wave.
That being said, all my plants are doing well. They all are producing fruit with some being very productive. I was hoping for some ripe peppers by now but none have begun the color change as yet. I am real hopeful that I have something to pick when I get back from camping on July 4th. We roots, lots of sun and heat and some large pods should add up to something I can put on the cutting board. I am really looking forward to finding out how hot the Banana Peppers really are or if they are maybe the sweet variety. Also, the Bhut Jolokias are looking nasty and I can’t wait to get one of those off the plant and find some idiot to try it out for me. Hahahaha.
