New Update!!!  Here are pictures more up to date than that last set... These were taken this past weekend, and this morning!  I threw in seeds on Friday night, and by this morning, there were already leggy sprouts from the cucumber, okra, and red kidney bean!  Hopefully those peppers start...

So I have been putting off starting this blog for far too long!  So I was recently added to the Community Garden, and was even fortunate enough to grab 2 full plots!!!  This is on top of the containers I have going on my front porch, and I am super pumped!!!  So far I am running somewhat behind...

Bump This pepper was about 6" from the mulch...and no signs of early blight anywhere on the leaves or stems....  Ill have to double check, but if it is, it is definitely not advanced, this is the first pepper I have seen this on

I was thinking BER too, but the location seems funny, not to mention how the damage is over several 'spots' in different locations.  However, I have not yet applied any Cal / Mag at any point...  I thought that might be my first fix attempt, but took it on inexperience to post here before adding...

Hey All!!!  Got one I've personally never experienced before... Treated a week or two ago with a small dose of liquid nitrogen, as the plants showed very clear signs of NIT deff.  (Yellowing leaves all over the plant, slowed growth, etc) Haven't had a heck of a lot of trouble with pests on these...

LOVIN the 2015 Season! Just started composting and container gardening this season!

So I made a bad judgement call, and against the recommendation of a random online site (can't remember which), I made an attempt to start a habanero from seed outdoors under the Texas sun, considering this odd cooler weather we have had.  Unfortunately, the sun won, and singed the seed leaves of...

Quick update, not much different yet.  I removed all but 5 or so Moruga's, as they were starting to get too big to leave that close together, next Im going to get them into nice little planter pots.  Also, I gutted a computer power supply (except for the fan), and used the fan, shell, and some...

PaulG, Thank you!  Nice to see some positive-minded people again lol!  Trust me, everything I do is on a steep learning curve (hope I never get 'bit'  for trying to learn to quickly lol), Im a firm believer in the old idea that the best time to learn is now, because you might need that knowledge...

Welcoming in the 2014 Season!

  So far, its really just an auto-watering system in perlite/coir (33% perlite 66% coir in most of the buckets, 100% perlite in the 7 pot bucket as an experiment).  Feeds 2x daily for 30 min each cycle.  There are 4x- 5 gallon buckets currently attached to the system, I have plans for 2 more...
