Well Ryme, you walked away with this one. Although, I'm fairly certain that even if there were a dozen more entries, you probably still would've come out on top. (Or bottom, as was the goal for this contest!)
Your heart-breaking tale of gardening misery made my day. Not in a sick, masochistic kind of way, though. More of a shit-your-pants-funny kinda way. Good work! PM me your address, and your little box o' hurt ships tomorrow!
P.S. Ryme, I hope earthquakes and diarrhea continue to be a non-factor in your 2015 growing season!

Rich, that sucks to hear that the weather didn't cooperate this year, but it sounds like you've got a plan to make the most of it. I hope the greenhouse OWs have an easier time in 2015 than they did this year.
And I STILL haven't forgotten about your dulcamara seeds. The first batch got accidentally thrown out and it took me a while to get another couple of berries drying. They are dry now and they go in the mail tomorrow when I mail Rymerpt's Reapers. I'm going to throw in couple packs of pepper seeds for varieties that I don't think you have. Consider it a conciliation prize or just a little something extra for having to wait so friggin' long for the nightshade seeds!
I know the contest is over but this pic perfectly describes my season. I grew AN Naga Morich.

For whatever reason, my nagas didn't do anything this year, either. Thy produced about as many pods as my onion plants.
