To: Organic Panic

A friend of mine has 10 greenhouses where he wholesales organic herbs and vegetable plants to many large retail chains in the southeast.

Since I was getting started late and he was coming to the end of the selling season, he put together a pretty big assortment of tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and lots of herbs.

I just realized what some of them are. I have 6 Ghost peppers and 6 Carolina Reaper peppers. They are the hottest of hot. You are only to handle them with rubber gloves on. He never said a word to me what they were as they were with a big assortment. I’m not sure what I’ll do with them, but it will be very interesting.

A few I never grew before: Patchouli, bay leaf, curry plant (also known as bhut), figs, cardoon.... and a few more

I cheated. Cut down 50+ huge trees, cut the stumps real short, two tri-axel loads of good soil/mulch mix, and spread it with a skid loader. This gave me about a 1,250 sq ft garden. A fraction of what I had previously, so I’m going vertical.
