harvesting Silver_Surfer's Harvest/Update 8-14-09

[Silver_Surfer]

Fatalii #1 has a few ripe and...

is setting more.

Fatalii #2 has ripened a few on the lower deck and...

continues to set fruit.

continued...

 

[Silver_Surfer]

Fatalii #3 is slowly starting to add lower branches and...

has a few pods in its upper canopy.

My 2nd year Datil is adding new growth and...

slowly setting a few more pods.

continued...

 

[Silver_Surfer]

My 2nd year storm damaged Naga is trying to get balanced again and...

adding some more heat.

Datil #1 is...

ripening a few now.

continued...

 

[Silver_Surfer]

Datil #2 is starting to lean with...

the added weight. Oops, I just realized I never staked these first year Datils!!!

Naga #1 steadily adds...

good pod weight. This is definitely my most productive Naga this year.

continued...

 

[Silver_Surfer]

Naga #2 has a few more ripe pods and...

is trying to catch Naga #1. These Naga Morichs are pod factories.

This years Red Hab is trying...

to get a few more ready for harvest while it sets new pods.

continued...

 

[Silver_Surfer]

My 2nd year Red Hab has...

something gnawing on one of its branches. DAMN IT!!!

The mutated Fish patrick saved is...

growing some albino pods to match its all white leaves.

And here's today's 3 pounds and 9 ounces of pod plunder.

Fataliis with a few Nagas and Habs.

Datil and a little Fish.

Going to a cookout this evening where everyone is asked to bring a dish,
so I thought I'd bring a few rellenos and maybe mark a few extra spicy. ;-)

Freakin Awesome. I N V U

 

[peter pepper]

looks great.

you live across from a cemetery?

 

[scarpetti]

Beautiful and bountiful plants! But at the cookout don't mark anything spicy. Just play stupid. It's so fun! I did that with stuffed rocotos and everyone thought they were sweet peppers at first! Ha Ha!!!!!

 

[Silver_Surfer]

Thanks guys.

looks great.

Nope, they "don't" live across from me. They're nice neighbors; they never complain and hardly ever create a ruckus. It's a pretty nice area and people are just dieing to get in.

Nah, I like to give some warning and there's always at least one or two in the crowd ready to take em on anyway. More fun to see em taken down a peg or two. One spiked with chopped Naga was passed between 4 before all of it was consumed.
The rest were demolished in less than 10 minutes.

Summer has gone nutz here and this is the coolest August I can remember. Currently overcast and 80, but look at the temps in this forecast, especially the lows.

My ripe pods are still coming in dribs and drabs right now, but it may pick up some in a week or two.

Here's to cooler weather for ya soon AJ.

Do you have an extra barn you keep your harvests in or what? Still can't get over how beautiful that part of the country is either... Lookin good SS

 

[patrick]

If you've never been in that part of the country boutros you owe it to yourself to go. I'm sure SS would put you up if you brought along some "rent money" ha!

SS I'm digging your albino fish.

Just the one barn, LOL. Thanks boutros.

Sounds like you've been to Bama patrick. You're the one that rescued that Fish plant from a 16oz cup, remember.
I had culled it because most of it wasn't variegated.
