Ok, I guess I will need to sort them by type. I took a quick look and I believe I have them sorted now. I guess I will be potting the Baccatums with plans for the greenhouse if needed. The plants were started in February so are decent size 6-12". I appreciate the suggestions. This will help...

Hellfire, Those are the seeds you sent me. Thanks for the input and the seeds!

I started way to many plants this year and will not be able to grow all of my list in pots. I'm looking for some input on likely candidates that might fully ripen in the ground here in the NW Oregon (Central Willamette Valley). Our season usually runs into October before cool weather and rain...

It's not too hard to make it. It really just takes time. I used a crock pot that had a keep warm setting. I wrapped the garlic bulbs tightly with foil and them placed them into a crock-pot liner bag and closed it up tightly. I used a mix of elephant garlic and regular white. I decided to check...

Ann, It's just a thought but perhaps some black garlic might be a nice addition. I just went through the process of making Black Garlic. It has a unique taste that might approach tamari/tamarind in a way. The end product would be darker though. I have just started trying to use it in hot sauce...

What a great idea dropping different types of peppers into each jar. The salsa I made last year has never been better using that method. Each jar had its own unique taste depending on the pepper in it. Brilliant!

I would be happy to taste test if there is some available.

You could pick up one of those portable greenhouse kits from Bimart. I used one for years and it will help with the space and get them outside.

Hi, Im close down in Lebanon. I wouldnt be in a rush this year. It been unusually cold. You really wont get any advantage by putting them out early if the ground temp is below 50f. I'm looking at May for my plants but they are still on the small side. Past experience has shown that my plants put...

I'm all in now. I promised myself I would downsize this year. It didnt work. I blame it on the seed train. I hope I can find a home for some of these. I still have a tote full in the freezer.

B train on its way to Dougthehead. Tracking # 9505515911783075387267

Just picked up the B train from the mailbox. Wow some amazing contributions took place to rebuild it. I plan on sending it on its way to Dougthehead by Friday.

I planted tomatillos 7 years ago in a small spot with some field fence to hold them up if needed. I have not had to replant since then. I have volunteer plants every year in the same spot. We have a decent climate here but nothing like the warmer areas they come from. I dont have any problem...

I have been roasting them on the bbq until a little charred. It brings out the sweetness in them. I then freeze them in plastic tubs for use in verde, pulled pork, etc... The roasting creates a sweet/tart syrup that they are frozen in.

Did we lose HeatMiser from the B train list? He was listed just before me about a week ago.

The banana looks a bit like a sea cucumber.

Do you store the roasted peppers frozen for later use?

I have been fermenting whole mustard seeds about 2-3 weeks in a 3% salt brine with some starter saved from a pepper fermentation as a base. The other ingredients like honey, horseradish etc... added after fermentation and when blending it up. Really tasty stuff that is stored in the refrigerator...

Another idea would be to send the A train back to where B train vanished once A train has completed its route. I was more curious of what everyone was adding this year. This would give the A trainers the opportunity to see what's been added this year.

Maybe 27C? that's about 80f
