Trying different plants this year




STARTED PLANTING TODAY!


I Bought some Poblano pepper plants from the local greenhouse, they are mild but can get up to four feet tall so I figured I would give them a try. I have bought them at the store before , they are mild but spicier than a sweet bell pepper, 12,000 scoville heat units is very mild, they are the main pepper in Mexico. Jalapenos are 60,000 units so these are more for flavor than heat.

I also bought just one plant of each, Cayenne pepper, Italian basil, Jalapeno pepper, Hungarian hot wax pepper, Green pepper, Big boy tomato, just wanted to get some stuff in the ground. Now that the frost is over I planted some seeds in pots, so we planted a ton of parsley and sage, they grow fast.
Still clearing out the main garden area of a huge pile of trimmed tree branches ready to bundle into kindling. Was just going to burn it all but I decided it is "fuel" so why waste it. Next week I will run a tiller, going to expand the existing area by 25% or so.

After a while when all the stuff is in the ground and growing I am going to take pictures and post them, so others can see what grows well. This should be interesting because I am transferring my well known maniacal obsessive compulsive behavior into something positive, growing as much edible vegetation as possible! lol, I am going to scrape the grassy thatch from under all of the fence lines and dump some soil and lay about 100" of pole bean seeds, in about 8 weeks they should completely take over the fence and start putting out massive quantities of huge beans, why waste a perfectly good vegetable fence.
Anyone have any thoughts on using that miracle grow stuff?

Ya better "crank up the canner" when all those beans come in. It's best to eat them fresh, but they taste wonderful in December and January out of the pantry.

I used to like those dill beans, whole beans canned in dill, maybe some garlic, really miss those, might have to try to make some. It would be interesting to experiment with ceyanne or habenero peppers and garlic canned with whole beans, they would probably be like firecrackers.

MMMMM...dilly beans are sooo good.Fresh whole green beans are good cooked with a few slices of salt pork. Simmer them down for about 30 to 40 minuted til they're nice and tender. I tasted them like that in the Georgia and the melt in your mouth.
