In case you were wondering about Silver_Surfer

As some of you may have noticed SS hasn't been on in over a month. I had been trying to call him over the last week with no response. Well today me and the wife drove down to see how he was doing and make sure everything was alright.

Turns out he is alive and kicking. He explained that he has been busy with other projects and he hasn't touched his garden in 2 months and doesn't plan on picking another pepper this year.

So he basically told me that I have an open season on his garden. All but maybe 8 or 9 of his plants were healthy and huge. I came home with a couple grocery bags of pods and plan on making at least one more run in the next month.

Ok, so who wants to come to Alabama and strip his garden for him? Lol.

Where in Alabama haha I'm in TN so I'm not far off!
Lol, well I won't tell you the actual city he lives in but it's not too far from UofA. Even though he had let his garden go, those plants and probably 80% of the pods were perfect

Of course. Nowhere near as many as I wanted, but I had the wife and a 1 year old in the car so I definitely couldn't take my time. But I'll go back before long and can take my time lol.

This was what I picked in 20 mins

I'm 3hrs away from Tuscaloosa if you want a hand! :party:
If you're 3 hours from Tuscaloosa, then you're about 2.5 hours from his garden. I actually might have to take you up on that. I will have no help and there is a shit ton....an actual shit ton of plants and every single one is absolutely loaded (imagine 2 months of not harvesting). I don't believe SS would mind. My wife is having a procedure tomorrow and will take about a week to heal. After she's able to move better and care for the little one alone, I'll be making the hour and a half drive down

Of course! No worries, I thought you meant help cleaning up his garden ha.
 
Glad SS is ok! It's never a bad thing to be super busy and always better than the other thought.

Lucky lucky garden gnome...
