Red—I never did buy an inline fertilizer like I told you 3-4yrs ago that I was going to. How’s that for procrastinating? Or is it just being cheep? lol

All—We have Lemon Drop tomatos coming along, a yellow grape tomater that grows in clusters. We have 10 maters on the Early Goliath, a few on Early Girl, which is running late, and nothing yet from 2 varieties of potato leaf tomaters, and I think we have some Brandiwines, too

Sarajevo—I have 3 banana peppers almost ripe, prob a dozen Jalapenos and a load of small hot peppers that I can’t remember the name, prob 25-30 on 1 plant, the peppers are at the top of the plant. When I go back out after break, I will get the name and a picture.

I have 2 Chili Tepin plants. One is in the ground by my back steps. Needless to say, the chickens love the little red peppers. The second one is a volunteer plant that took hold in a pot with my banana tree. It's in our front enclosure where the birds can't get to it. You know that those peppers are great as a salad drizzle when you let them sit in a bottle of white wine vinegar ;)
The rest of my peppers are coming along nicely. I need to spray them though. Something is eating the leaves at night.

My okra are making a comeback. I planted a final batch in an old window pot and they are growing fast. I should be able to transplant them in the hoophouse by the end of the month.

I hope this inline feeder works well. I will find out in a few months. It is a 2 gallon EZ-Flo and seems to be working ok so far, but my plants are still small and need another few weeks to see significant growth. I could not find any wheat hay to top my layer of ground cloth/fabric so I am using a red hard wood mulch. Hope it works well. I have all my tomatoes panted (35) and still need to put in a couple of zukes and pepper plants. I may also plant a couple of watermelon and acorn squash. I will have to see how things are going. But I will have to do so soon as they take a while to develop.
