Happy First Full Day of Winter(snow,sleet,ice,mud,short-dark-days) to all who celebrate! Which also mean it's the un-official First Day of 2023 Pepper Season. Seeds just seem to want to grow when the sun turns back. I appreciate this community being here though my contributions are somewhat...

State of the Garden -Late Fall 2021 The whole of the fenced garden is 60x70 with 6" wove wire 8' tall Starting last fall, we built the first beds inside the newly leveled and fenced garden area. Garlic, shallots and a few fall greens were planted immediately. This spring about 3/4 of the...

Hello, Cappers. It's been a year a and a most of a pepper season since we moved to our new garden site. So I've been somewhat busy re-building. Pepper seeds don't last forever, but I have 138 pepper seed lots going back 8 years maybe. So. what to do to get a jumpstart? A few did sprout last...

Long time no read.   Unnecessary history -skip to A at will.  My last glog was 2015 it appears. I just evaporated. A medical issue in '14  took me forever to get adjusted to the meds and by '15, I just threw in the towel out of frustration I guess. The garden got shoved to the back burner. I...

In Asheville? You got to try this place . If you like Caribbean, you won't be disappointed. Generous portions at an honest price -especially lunch. I make it over there about every other month and eat there almost every time. Hector makes a nice Hab/Jala sauce. In fact, I'd say he was the...

Howdy, I was researching some hot peppers I received seeds for in a blind swap and most of the links pointed here it seemed, so I thought I'd hang around and see what I could learn. From what I've seen here so far, the growing skill and zeal are pretty impressive. Last year was my first year...
