Mels growing adventures

"Junk pot" plants are awesome, ain't they!

I got one here that is growing in almost rock hard soil and has been completely stripped by possums... twice... and continues to grow like a champion. So keen to find out what it is!
 
THP - yep, they hang across my pool fence.. but since I've been running out of room on the fence I now have the Rocoto in a pot on the ground :D

Junk pots are awesome Gas! Everything growing in my junk pot is doing better than my other seedlings!
 
Nice plants. When's the pool party BBQ?

Here;s my favourite little "junk pot" (well, "junk dumping ground") guy here....

Don't let the bark or sandy looking stuff confuse you either..... that soil is as tough as bricks!

The possums ate him twice and he still laughs at them. HA-HA-HA he says!

Sun beats down daily on him from sunrise to sunset too..... stockiest, most resilient little thing I've grown yet!
 
LOL.. i'm used to being in trouble :P seriously.. we should have a get together though!! i'm sure it would be entertaining!

Nova, just made dinner with chicken wraps, baby spinach, cheese, avocado and your sauce.. OMFG!! Three big dollops may have been too much.. I have watery eyes and a runny nose.. might have to make the next one with a touch less sauce :D
 
Glad to hear that the sauce works mate, i will kick it up a notch next time seeing as though you are getting used to it.
 
good googely moogely mel....your plants are doing fantastic...love the ripe jalapenos...


agree with PRF...make some poppers...
 
thanks AJ :) I think I will be making some poppers :)

and Nova - I wasnt just blowing smoke up your a$$... its really good! i was full but went back for another wrap.. little less sauce but it was still great! you should post the recipe for everyone :D my lips are still tingling!!
