Picked about 3-9 tomatoes this week. Small but no problem.
Picked about 16 Jalapeno peppers. Oh yeah, good and hot they’ve been so far. Hope to ship these off to a friend for fun.
Cherry tomatoes doing good - there are about 60+ out there - I picked 14 on Friday.
Tomatoes from Beefsteak plant ripened with apples - got one green cherry tomato sealed in the bucket with them - he fell off early - good size - he just needs to ripen.
I didn’t do my 4th harvest from the Sweet Basil plant - there now may be very few leaves I can harvest. Oh well, it still smells good.
I picked 30 peppers this past week - not huge but all Green - some turning red and maybe a little yellow. Mostly they’re just all Green Peppers.
Sweet Marconi plant has given up about 3-4 the past couple weeks - she has a couple big ones and 3 or 4 going - 3 are coming along nicely - the 4th is still small I think.
I’ve got some tomatoes to chop up and peppers to chop and freeze. Oh well, having a bit of fun with it.
hope my tomatoes survive...
Just when I thought they might be done, our peppers are coming on strong again, that and the secondary growth broccoli. 4 broccoli plants seem to be enough for the 2 of us. we eat a lot when the first heads come in, and then steam a minute or 2 and vacuum seal and freeze any extra. Had a nice unexpected meal’s worth plus leftovers yesterday.
Sounds like some good results to me. Trim that basil plant make sure and leave a few leaves on it, give it some fertilizer and continue to water it.
If it’s in a pot, bring it in and you should have basil all winter - I kept one going for 5 years, and it would still be going, except that I just decided to dump it - it was looking so scraggly. I am still using dried basil from that plant.
