I seems like we all are having trouble with our peppers this year. Thrips, upside down leaves, curled leaves, 14 year old myspace users....and now, skunks. The bastards just dug up the front planter where we have our Big Jims for the Big Jim challange. Doing damage control, it looks like 4 out of 9 survived with a possability of one of these dieing still. The skunks were looking for Japanese Beetle larvee (a problem we have here in Southern California). I'm going to go pick up some Moth Balls at lunch time and strategically place them around the garden and house.
Luckally, we have a back up area of Big Jims and two seed packets that were just planted in trays yesturday. It'll set us back in the challange, but at least were are not out of the running yet.
