Growing Jolokias and Habaneros in the Philippines

Not too bad a place to work with man! Good luck!!

thanks sean!

still don't have that many chinenses in the ground at the moment. will be sticking them in soon as soon as i get the raised bed project done.
 
It looks like you have some nice soil to work with; lookin' forward to seeing your harvests.

what's odd is, the plants that used to be there always died. but these guys are somehow thriving. lots of termites there too. found probably 13 queens since i've been planting there. hope i killed all the queens.
 
dug it up, put in more soil and planted my tomatoes, peppers and eggplants.

Not trying to be critical, but I would have spaced the
plants out more. Your tomatoes are going to outgrow
and completely cover your peppers.

yes, i am aware of that. i'll end up cutting off some branches and cloning them if that happens then dig up the original plant and probably move it somewhere else.

thank you for the tip.
 
this is what i've been doing for the past 2 days....

raised garden bed no. 2 with eggplants, variegated calamansi, chinense peppers, some annuums

my compost pile

burned up leaves and whatever, also turning into compost...my driver's been making this stuff for a few months now. the inner parts of it is already most likely useable already.

Good looking soil and very nice eggplant.

thanks zander, i've put up a fence around those beds this week since my labrador's been munchin on the leaves of my plants. she stepped on a few while she was running around chasing the family of cats that's started living in the other garage. =(

that soil, i bought for a P1.20 a 50 kilo sack (110 pounds). living in a third world country sure helps with expenses. lol.

i'll post pix of the fencing today.

only managed half, ran out of the stuff. still got bamboo left over from a previous taking down of a fence somewhere else in the house. i'll use that.

been moving around that container of basil to help improve my nightshade's growth. seems to help.
