Great pics!

Yep, good eye. 2 starts re-potted on April 25th. Started real slow and then all of the sudden, kapow!....the things just exploded with growth. I need to re-stake one of them. It's leaning to one side because it's so heavy with pods.

Looks like you're going to be up to your ears in ripe pods before long. Great job on the garden my friend!

Here's a nice cluster of pods from one of my plants. This is one of two Orange Hab plants that I have. Both got off to a bit of a slow start, but then hit a growth spurt a while back and exploded. Both of these plants are loaded with pods. Both pics are of the same cluster, one pic is just a...

Beautiful Garden man! I really like the looks of the Maui Purples. I have seeds of that variety in my stash and will be growing them next season.

Just picked this up last night and put it together. That's right, it's a classic ECB (El Cheapo Brinkmann) :D I've been smoking on my Weber Kettle grill up until now and have wanted to get a smoker for a really long time. Only problem is that they can get pretty pricey for a nice one. And with...
