but it is getting pretty thick with pod set. Still no ripe ones though.

That's it for now; It's too dang hot to take pics. LOL
 
Awesome plants and garden. Looks like everything is going full bore. Very impressive pods on those Nagas.
 
When can I come visit? That corn looks about ready to go in a week or two. :D

And the pods. LOVE the poddage you go going there.
 
Black Pearl looks awesome. Great garden you have there, sure wished I could have a garden like that
 
Dialup is a drag; it took 20 minutes just to load this page and to top that off my phone service went on the blink last night right after making this post. :-(

Wow! Nice work there, Surfer -

Looks like space is not a major issue?! :lol:

Thanks, space may not be an issue but keeping it mowed in this heat surely is. :-)

Beautiful pictures of heavenly garden :)

Thank you, but you're far too lavish with your pics complement. :)

Wonderful looking everything!! Man would I enjoy being your neighbor SS.

It would be nice having a fellow chili head as a neighbor, since there aren't any near to me.

Thanks, got to get those plants supported before they yield to the weight.

Thanks AJ, I keep reminding myself of that while sitting atop the mower in this summer scorcher.

You're kidding right? With your huge selection of premium pods a trade is a done deal, but you can have the seeds regardless. :)

The turkeys are cool to watch, it's the deer and the coons I have to watchout for. They can destroy a garden in a single night.
Thanks, I like the pearl too and this is my first year growing it.
 
Ripening pods insisted on their time in the limelight so I update on their behalf. ;-)
