As my previous journal states we had a nasty storm last night that ravaged my plants. I took a few pictures of the damage and the tomatoes I am attempting to ripen thanks to the advice of rainymountain and nax (thanks again!) I really hope they are ok. On better examination all of the various peppers and herbs stood up well to the storm. the real issue was the tomatoes.

A huge storm hit last night with 80 mph winds. knocked down every last one of my plants (even the 80+ pound upside down mater planter). A LOT of fruit that was not ripe yet was ripped off. There are probably about 50 green tomatoes lying all over the ground. One of my Health Kick Hybrids cracked at the stem and is unsalvageable, so that plant is gone.

I’m so upset!

I guess no matter how green of a thumb you have, mother nature can still be mean little bi**h.

Marigolds LOVE the upside down planter. They have gotten huge, and multipled. I started off with only a two plants and now have about 5

I lost my daisies. I completely forgot about them, and don’t remember where I planted them….. Maybe I accidently crowded them out in the top of the upside down planter.

I can’t believe I lost my daises! lol

I have so many banana peppers I don’t know what do with with them. I have been giving so many away to people its not even funny! I am going to start pickling them this weekend. Making my own pepperoncini :) yay!

My camera in being funky. I took pictures of my harvest the other day (tomatoes, banana peppers, jalapenos and a green pepper) and my bright red tomatoes, but then it pooped out on me. I changed the batteries and it kept doing the same thing… booo.

So, unfortunately, no pictures until I figure out what is wrong with it.
