harvesting While I was away - harvest

I'm back in town after a 10 pseudo-vacation. I picked anything that looked ripe or half ripe before I left, and when I got back there was this:

Here's the breakdown.
2 red and 2 orange hab plants...

2 Greek pepperoncini (2+ weeks on these)

2 lemon drops (c. bac)...

a bunch of jalapeno plants, half of them in 1 gal, others in 3 gal...

some misc, thai, thai dragon, tabaco (first ripe ones), and a few super chili...

And almost forgot, I picked some wax today for poppers etc...

Made a blender of salsa and a quart of picked jalapenos today. Had fresh Greeks in pasta last night and I'm pre-soaking the small ones for pickling tomorrow. Wax/jalapeno poppers and burgers for dinner!

Unripend?!?!?! WHHHHYYYY!!!!!!

Hehee. I'm trying to replicate the greek pickling. I'm convinced these are picked unripe and on the small side due to the ease of packing in a jar... or something. Don't worry ... there's plenty of time for ripe ones later in the season.

Oh. Ok. :lol:

Nice looking pods either way.

Great bunch of pods carol and a very trustworthy neighbor. :)

Yeah, she did great. If anything I think she may have overwatered. But, hey, we had heat index of 110 for several days.


I found my kitchen scale and "fish hook" scale in storage today. The only peppers that remained intact were the lemons, habs and japones.

Lemon Drop - 9oz
Habs (combined) - 6.5oz
Japone - 4oz

Pretty sure the greeks were about 1lb and the jalapenos pushing 2 lbs - they're the densest.
