You do realize that wearing a mask can actually be detrimental to your health...

I have a similar issue in my raised bed every year.   The reason is; the plants become top heavy, especially when loaded with pods, and the soil in my raised bed is quite loose.   A garden stake and large UV resistant cable ties quickly remedy the situation.

I see management and employees in Lowes not wearing masks properly, or not at all, even though it is 'required' to wear one to enter the store.   In the last four months, I have only seen ONE employee in ANY retail establishment EVER wipe down the credit card machine, even though hundreds of...

Ladybugs are a natural and very, very effective means to control and eliminate aphids.

Adam,   I buy off Amazon.   That Jalapeno is twice the size of mine, nice! EDIT: Just checked the brown Jalapeno; it is turning red.

Adam,   I do my 'pre-fertilization', to coin a phrase, using the Down-to-Earth products.   A couple weeks after plant-out, I start a regimen of Alaska Fish and Liquid Kelp, at 80% recommended dilution (4 fl. oz. of each per 5 gal. water), and apply once a week. I generally give each plant a...

One month after plant-out.       The two Red Primo on right side of second pic in back row are doing really well, might be monsters by the end of the year!   Red Primo pod.     ScotchBrain.     Joe's Long Cayenne.     Gnarly Chocolate Bhut already turning.       Brown Jalapeno???      ...

Thanks Adam,   Not doing the Red CPR this year, trying to cut back on number of plants, and wanted to try some new varieties, so, unfortunately, the Red CPR did not make the cut this year.   Looking forward to seeing how well the Red CPR will grow for you, if you decide to try it next year. It...

Thanks.   If you mean the Boxer Brown, yes, I try to invest in something that will last for several seasons.

My tallest was a Jigsaw that reached 80 inches and about five feet across.

Three weeks later:       Gnarly Chocolate Bhut already putting on some decent pods.     Tomatoes.  

My one and only experience with Kellogg's was so bad, I would not advise my worst enemy to use it. As to potting up, FF Ocean Forest is my go to.

Thanks Paul.   Looking forward to seeing what yours does this year.   All the best.

Adam,   Plants are looking really good, when you plan to plant out?

Have no idea, never tested it.

Main raised bed planted.         Tomatoes.  

I used to do about six inches above plant tops with my old six-lamp T5HO fixture.

Forecast says near 90° most of next week, time to get them in the ground, even if it is a week earlier than I had planned.
