The last two weeks here have been very good weather wise, we went through this freakish cool spell that had the tomatoes and peppers at a stand still as far as maturing was concerned.. One day Heirloom tomato harvest, aprox. 80+ pounds: Criolla de Cocina bell pepper, very tasty!: A few Mature Bhut Jolokia's: And some immature Bhut's..(sure hope the Minnesota weather holds up)  Large yellow Habanero's Corno de Toro pepper, very nice tasting sweet pepper Half of the onion crop Close up of their size T he other half of the onions, harvested, and dried for the most part on the 6x12 frame: Yesterdays potato harvest, 1/4 of the total harvestThe bowl of potatoes is from ONE plant, 7 1/4 pounds The other 1/4 of total harvest (the other half (approximately 225 pounds) is in the pantry already.  One of the large ones..1 1/2 pounds: and here's three 1/2 gallon jars of Brined dills we had soaking for 4 weeks... THANKS FOR VIEWING  ...All I have to say is: BEHOLD THE POWER OF ORGANICS Oh, and fer good measure, here's what I picked today...   |

 It looks like your garden may have paid off this year. Enough food for a small army. Thanks for posting the pics. Ditto on the ORGANICS.

Yeah I brought it in last year and it did OK but Its so big .. tough to keep good light on it .. I am saving a bunch of seeds from it .. to re plant next year .. it was a cold season for hot peppers this year ! None really did that well .. wish I had a big HUGE green house!!
