By that, I mean I can finally see the end result, the fruiting and the ripening is happening hard and fast now. All the peppers, tomatoes, beans, and tomatillos are looking just about ready for p...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:25:21 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27057?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27057Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:12:57 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27056?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27056Just a growth update. Three peppers with I believe more on the way.Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:09:52 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27055?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27055The history behind this guy is interesting. Apparently I had planted two seeds, both sprouted, I didn’t bother to thin (which I don’t sometimes), so one pepper did in fact turn out to be a Red Ruffled, the other I have no clue what it ...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:08:51 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27054?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27054I can never remember how to spell this tomato – nor do I know how to pronounce it. However, it’s starting to fruit like mad though. These guys were a little gift from a friend, and I had never heard nor planned to grow them. I love g...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:05:21 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27053?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27053Still fruiting away. These are a joy to watch grow, I love the shape of these tomatoes. If the flavour is half as pleasing as the shape, I’ll definitely be growing them again (and I’ve heard nothing but good things about their flavou...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 18:03:31 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27052?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27052Just a little growth updated on this guy. There’s about 30 setting fruit on this plant, and about 15 more on the other plant. I’m going to have so many tomatillos. But mostly, this plant is just HUGE. I really should trim it back, b...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:57:40 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27051?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27051I’m holding off picking these yet – I don’t know why, because they’re totally ready to go, perhaps delayed gratification? I’ve been waiting ALL SUMMER to get some sort of harvest from anything at all, and now that th...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:54:54 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/27050?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/27050Well, it’s finally occurred, with the hot weather the way it is and whatnot, the romaine lettuce has bolted. That’s okay, I’m not a huge fan of romaine anyway, and planted it primarily as filler on a whim (although it has served...Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:52:31 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/25294?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/25294The second generation of cilantro I planted is now officially bolting. I neglected to plant a third planting of seeds. Damn. From the showing of true leaves to bolt it was less than a month.

So why the hell does this look eerily similar to my Chili De Arbol pepper? Certainly doesn’t look like any red ruffled I’ve ever grown b...Sat, 26 Jul 2008 20:58:16 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/24469?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/24469After being incredibly unsuccessful last year, finally, this year, there will be fruit from this guy.Sat, 26 Jul 2008 20:56:49 GMThttp://myfolia.com/journals/24468?from=rsshttp://myfolia.com/journals/24468Called and heirloom but not really an heirloom (inception was in 1983).
