The gardening gods were kind today. After 3 days of brutal heat - 90 - it cooled off to about 60, was overcast, and we even got a 30-minute downpour. This change of weather happened to coincide with the one day I could really put in a lot of work. Most of my peppers are in, as well as all the other suspects. I pulled about 3,000 dill volunteers and have another 3,000 still out there. Had to rip out a lot of borage and catnip, too, but there's plenty floating around. If I can get in a solid 3 hours tomorrow morning, I'll feel accomplished.
 
Of the 15-20 varieties of peppers, the new ones I'm trying are Ed's, Corbaci, Ram's Horn, and Berbere.
 
I hope everyone else had a good gardening day.
 
Sounds like you made great progress! I am still holding out for another week up here in Canada. It has been a rather chilly couple months up here. Last week it was still dropping to almost freezing at night. I finally got the gardens tilled and the plastic on my pepper garden the other day. 
 
Yup, nights are the drag right now, have to be careful. Used burlap to cover some of my stuff at around +6c otherwise they come in.
 
   Congrats. No better feeling in gardening than when you finally get everything in it's permanent home!
