Awesome cake, J.  2014 is off to a pretty god oops, good, start for you!
 
Thats nice of your friend to pass along the Thai to you. I'm sure you will have it back up in running in no time!
 
Ok,its realy quiet,I know.
For the last 5 days we have been in the middle of a heat wave,it was probably 44 degrees celcius everyday.
Last night it started raining a bit and it rained again today.
No majour growth in the peppers,but the ones my grandpa gave me are seriously getting bigger :)

I also gave the peppers some seaweed extract yesterday
 
Tiny leaf growth makes for an excellent bonsai. Not sure how well it would work with an annuum though... May be a fun experiment. When does the growing season wrap up there?
 
Hey maximumcapsicum,bonsai..I'll have to take a look at that :) may work well since I have over 60 plants that are from my grandpa.
I don't realy know when the seasons end,I guess in march.
but yea,I'll look into that bonsai idea! :P
 
Ok,I just bought some orange habs,I'm gonna chop one up very fine and eat it with pasta tonight,and try a whole one tomorrow.
They are very small,but hey,I've never eaten something as hoy as a hab

Does everyone see the pics through the link???
 
Hey J, looks like everything is coming along great. You will see that the plants will grow in leaps and bounds from here. Only thing to worry about now is the watering. These babies can stand on their own two feet! Well done ;)
