RocketMan's 2013 Glog; In The House!!

There are no gardening mistakes,only experiments." -- Janet Kilburn Phillips

I love that quote and it will try my best to remember it through this new grow. So, I'm going with only 18 varities this year as we're looking at moving to a larger house if not buying this summer and I really don't want to have to try and haul a ton of plants when we do. the ones I've selected are:

Alot of them are ones i started last year that never grew beyond a certain point and I'm pretty sure that a lot of it was my new grower mistakes. Since I really want to try them I'm giving them a grow again. Once again, thanks to everyone that helped me getting started with gifts of seeds and to all on here thanks for leaving your incredable words of wisdom that we can all learn from.

Cheers to a bountiful grow this year.

I had never heard of seedless Papaya before but after a little research on the intereebs I found out that it's not uncommon for tr first fruits to be seedless. I also read that the seeds are good and make a great replacement for black pepper. Nor, y'all know I like to at around with new flavors and I'm really looking forward to playing with some seeds :)
 
Oh...oh...oh...bobbing for Brains and Reapers!!! Perfect for Halloween!!!! Great view too! Life is good at the Launch Pad! I bet that papaya is gonna be a good addition to them sauces!

Oh, and the mantis tiller is a keeper for sure, nice score! They're a bit of work to do a large plot with, but really make it nice when you're cultivating between rows. I use a small tiller to do all my beds.
 
Nice view poolside at the new launch pad Bill... does the glassed-in room adjacent get much traffic? If not, it could be a perfect place to put your potted-up peppers during the cold spells.
 
Good on ya having Papaya growing on your property... I've never tried it fresh, but I'm sure you'll find a way to make a great sauce with them. I never knew the seeds were useable in food too... Drive on brother!
 
Tonight is processing time got the Tharic so have to have a label for it. So, tell me which one you like:

Hope everyone's having a great week. Big day coming up Saturday and possibly some changes as I've applied for a position that's only a 20 minute commute instead of 45 minutes and no till roads. I'm hoping to get a call for interview later this week.
