Any Gardeners out there??

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

Nope, not me. We let them ripen. And we didn't grow any green zebras or anything like that this year.

Deb is the gardner I have a brown thumb


You don't need to give away zucchini just get a bread and butter pickle recipe and shred them (Julianned). Add some dill for a zing. :thumbsup: :twisted:

Dee Bee, I am starting to think you do not do anything with out doing it 100% perfect. Your TD, Boats and now Garden... WOW!!! :bowdown:

Here is my podunk Garden. Just a test run this summer to see if I am any good at it. I don't like the weeding part. Or the Stink Bug part.

Image

It's just an 8x8 area with Tomatoes, Watermelon, Peppers, Squash and Eggplant.

Folks the eggplant is darn easy to grow. Nex year I am going to do my Mater, Pepper and eggplant in containers and save the ground space for the small stuff.

These are in a container and after they turned red....phewwww they were hot. Great for adding some zing to a meal. :thumbsup:

thanks Mike. They are HOT as... well, heck. I lost a whole zip lock back of them in the freezer last week when the Fridge stopped working. :( But they are still growing like crazy in the container. So I should be able to collect more. :thumbsup:

How are yours doing?

Mine are hot as ... well you know... yours...

I use three little slices on a salad, and then I'm sweating up a storm.

I'm really waiting for my cherry peppers, and my zavory peppers...

Here's what my cherries look like... and they have only 10% of the heat of jalapenos.

My zavories should look like this...

If you scrape the membrane and the seeds the peppers are hot but loose a lot of their heat. I grill them with a filling of cream cheese. Ummmmm
