ALl I have are a couple of bell pepper plants and I already have three, not counting the one I ruined when I stained my deck.

Have any of you ever grown a pepper called a pimienta? It's a little yellow pepper shaped like a pimiento. I got my first 3 off the vine today and WOW, they pack some heat.

I ate one just as I was leaving for work this afternoon and apparently I rubbed my nose prior to washing my hands. It's been an hour and I'm still burning.

i had a similar experience.

I touched one at lunch. Later, I wiped my sweaty brow as we walked in the street. a bead of sweat went down into my eye.....yowza. It hurt.

That's one spicy meatball.

We had a good crop of peas this year with the cool wet spring. We had good beets as well. Carrots haven't done very well this year - not sure why. Tomatoes are doing very well. Corn and beans I planted late so they're not doing so great. Pumpkins are flourishing.

The deer were very well fed earlier this season, I had to go put a chicken wire fence around most of the Garden offerings or the deer might have finished it off.

My tomatoes are finally looking like they might actually produce, the lettuce and radishes are out of control, I had some radishes the other day that were almost 3 inches round, they looked like racquetballs.

For some reason my carrots and onions did nothing, not even popped up at all.

Cukes and pumpkins and watermelon should be arriving within the next 30 days, with a vengeance. I love fresh cukes and tomatoes, slice them thin and add a splash of vinegar and extree virgin olive oil and salt and pepper; delicious!!!

I've got all of that plus my corn is knee high and my pumpkins and squash and zuccini are going well
