Been a strange experience here for me this year, but I didn't know
what to expect and got started late to boot. Peppers, however, have
been a big nothing. We have one jalapeno bush and it has two peppers
about the size of serranos. I think next year I'm going to put black
weedmat around them and see if that will heat up the roots enough to
make them interested in growing. Everything else is doing well so
far if a bit late--beans are all producing and it looks like we may
have a few to freeze. Summer squashes are just beginning to fruit
and will likely give us more than we need. Winter squashes have set
nicely. Our odd salad plants--nasturtiums and rat-tail radishes--are
producing more than we can eat [so we'll plant fewer next year].
Tomatillos are beginning to flower. Second plantings of cauliflower,
carrots, and beets are up. Vegetable gardening is the perfect
example of hope trumping experience, no?
