After 3 years of work, my 1996 pontiac firebird is back up and running beautifully. Such a long wait! It's amazing to have a garage again!

Time to go home and give my Butch T plant a good hug and let him know of his new title. Maybe it'll give him a newfound reason to grow big and tall.

Scotts is what gave me some of the weird random objects in the soil. Had a candy wrapper and a package from some off-brand fruit snacks in one of my bags of soil. Pretty certain it wasn't compost material... But yea, seeds do have a tendency to wind up in the weirdest spots. Had sunflowers...

Same as SRBII. I found the fertilome yeild booster last year and combine it with epsom salt. Makes a wonderful foliar spray.

As the others said, pick the fruits off and repot. It may not get as tall but it'll surely bush out nicely and give you a much better yeild in the long run.

Geez, no love for rtf? I got your back redtail!

Nice looking plants all around. I especially like that Pakistan Surprise. Pretty little guy

Soil would also be my first guess. Is the soil very heavy? Does it cake up when wet? And the buckets don't look filled very much, especially with 2 inches of rocks on the bottom. If the soil's too thick or wet, it'll cause lotsa issues.

Those other seedllings seem to be trembling in fear of those massive leaves coming towards them. Those things look like they'd make a nice blanket!

There's a good many ant killer solutions and sprays and whatnot. Another option is that you can always bake the soil. That usually kills most eggs and seeds of any weeds that get in there. On a hot day you can use foil or reflective material to focus the heat on soil and get it nice and hot...

Got my first pepper coming in. Off the same plant that started last week and just dropped off. It's one of my mystery plants but it looks like it'll be either an Indian PC or Chili D'arbol. My bhut jolokia is continuing to respond well to the new, less-waterlogged soil. As are all the other...

I'd say if it's still staining your shower and sink it's likely a bit too high. That sounds like quite a lot of copper content.

The jealousy here runs deep. Your plants look great. Even got some ripe ones there. And here's hoping you don't have to do anymore plant tipping!

Yep mine are staying outside too. It's bad enough hauling them during possible hailstorms, they can handle a night in the 40's. And with how wrong the forecasts have been, it might not even get that low.

The 90+ degrees is hot but the plants seem to be loving it. My morgue of a garden is springing back to life!

Don't give up on em! They may fight back. I had quite a few get demolished in rain and wind, but they're still fighting and have come back pretty strong.

Pictures would help, but it does sorta sound like what would happen when peppers get sunburned.

Looks like you're waging war on all kinds of fronts right now. Hope everything recovers! How's the caterpillar problem?

I've crushed a few this year... on accident.. All but 1 has come back strong. They're a little shorter though.. If you break the stem, they'll bush out more so long as you don't go overkill on it.

Another severe storm. Another moving of 20 pots into the garage for safety. Tired of severe threats!
