Re: veggie-digest Digest V100 #47

This is my first attempt at growing bell peppers, and only my second
season
at gardening.  Not only are my veggies green, but so am I (smile).

What I would like to know is this; I planted my peppers in front of my
tomatoes and in back of my collards, 5 of the pepper plants have
developed
some peppers, but one of them croaked?  I didn't know that the collard
leaves would grow so large?  Do you think that I should move them - or
should I just rearrange the leaves, as I have been doing to the collars
so
that the bell peppers can receive sunlight?

My second question is this, last season, I planted gourds in that area,
and
this season a few have reappeared - without replanting.  Something,
according to the manuals that I have read, that should not have occurred.
Will this harm anything?  Let me know what you think?

Thanks - Dawn

Hello Neighbor,
I'm in Connecticut also!!!!
Why not just trim the collards and use them..Stick a nice piece of smoke
ham hock in with them and yum eat up.
The winter last year, even though it doesn't seem like it to me , was
mild.  I have some jack be little pumpkins that re seeded and came up
where they grew last year.  
 I have been gardening here in CT since I was big enough to know what a
weed was..The last 18 years I have been growing organically. You name it
I will try to grow it LOL
