3 of our poblanos died and 2 of our anaheims. I think the plants were too young and the stems too thin and so got too wet and rotted out. have 3 tops soaking in water to root, but dont have much hope.
Instead we will plant shishitos in the empty pot, and jimmy nardellos in the front pot (2 poblanos).
Also have to plant 4 or 5 yellow cayennes in big pot, and 3 aji charapitas.

You'll know it's time for harvesting onion seeds when the umbrels or flowering heads begin turning brown. Carefully clip the stalks a few inches below the head and place them in a paper bag. Set the bag in a cool, dry place for several weeks.

Spent 2 hours outside. planted the black beauty. the other black beauty has 1 flower already! it's 2 fused ones together. i decided to leave it. black sea has open flowers!

I planted all the peps. only 2 of our habanadas survived. i put jimmy nardello in the front poblano, and 2 shishito and 2 nardello clumps in the 2nd poblano pot. i put aji charapita in the back anaheim pot with the blueberry. yellow cayenne is in a line next to toms in hot pep bed.

morning glory is staked up now. raspberry is fruiting! got 6 berries. gooseberry is colouring up - theres at least 40 berries.

1 tom spot is open. we have 1 green zebra, 2 lucid gem possible planting. still have to plant bee balm.

Another poblano rotted out. the other 3 in the other pot look pretty good. 1 left in the front pot.

took pictures of the poppies we want to save seed from.

blush tiger has flowers.

found a blue cream berry! going to plant in our last spot. got 2 trays of plants to g to alveole. going to plant the rest up the street, probably. too many plants.

todo: dig compost pile.

alvelo: begin thurs at 3 pm

Poblano by the fence has new growth! Shishito cutting has roots!

today have to dig and bury compost-done. planted blue cream berry. no beans or flowers up yet. lucid gem is getting flowers now. other lucid gem looks dead. got 2 trays of plants to go to alveole tomrow. Sulfurized hanging planters, and the path to deter cats. One poblano is dead.

think about fertilizing the blooming tomatoes, maybe peppers too with blooming fertilizer.

Just realized the blooming fertilizer will affect the basil too! Oh well.

spent 2 hours at alveole planting the garden. r planted habaneros in a line by the beehouse. i planted ground cherries in the lawn between sunflowers. we planted all the omatoes and peppers inthe bed. they had cat problems too and we are worried the cat might dig up our plants. but we have replacements.

staked and tied a lot of tomates. lot of them have flowers out or forming, and peppers are budding a lot. only the anaheim has an open flower.

the lucid gem and berkely in the flower bed are doing well.

snipped off 2 berkely cutting and put them to root. will stake those toms some other day. more trimming to do there.

we have 2 large bamboo canes left, used 2 today.

speckled roman died. planted lucid gem in its place. still have 1 lucid gem and 1 green zebra left.

cats are back int he yard. maybe the rain wahed the sulfur, i'm thinking nothing will help and i've gvien up. just keep planting succulents to cover bare soil i guess. maybe a netting around the pepper bed too.

marigold haas buds! put shishito out to harden. all the purple calls have 1 flower, no other colours yet.

spent an hour in the garden this evening, until dusk. R potted up 3 banana trees. I cleared out a lot of goji. The lilies are out! One yesterday, almost a dozen today. Watered a few toms even though it rained heavily yesterday or the day before. It was so hot today it was 31C. Yellow Cayennes are alive, and 1 habanada alive. Snatched some tansy from alveole, some of the toms look alive. The tansy has the fern leaves and yellow buds. Hopefully it will take off.
