We had tons of rain 2 out of 3 nights last week. My tomatoes did fine somehow.

However, tonite is supposed to get into the mid 40s so I picked all my Tom’s that are begging to ripen and put them iny sunny window sill.

The rest...we shall see how they handle the cooler night time temps.

I did a big harvest today. I filled two mesh bags that previously held 10lbs of onions....I filled them with fresh bell and poblano peppers.

I filled a mesh bag that previously held 5lbs of lemons.....filled that bag to the brim with jalepenos. I am going to pickle them tomorrow.

I am off work the tomorrow and the next day
I am goingvto reorganize my greenhouse house shelves ( remove half the shelves to make room for potted peppers and eggplants that still have young fruit on them.)

Two days ago I ripped out my cucumber plants and planted seeds for greens.

‘Tis the season! I made three jars of refrigerator pickled peppers this morning. I have a basket of red and a basket of green bells to deal with yet, but that’s just chopping and freezing. Maybe a batch of Pepper Sauce (like Pasta Sauce) if I get motivated.

I’m pretty burned out at this point in time. I’ll post pictures of my canned goods one of these days!
