I've got new pepper plants coming up again (habs and cayennes) and a basil that's exploding. Freaking Jalapeno seeds just won't frigging germinate. WTF. I might just buy some pint plants at the depot.

My garden froze last night.
I guess you do live in the cold part. A little surreal for me to hear that, since it's still quite warm here.

I wouldn't throw them in the compost pile. Especially if your going to use the compost in the garden. You can spread disease that way. I burn mine. Throwing them in the trash is another option
I used 10 habs to make a hot sauce tonight. Simple recipe, and my habanero were a little over ripe but man this is delicious. Really fruity, with a little heat in the finish.
Excuse the quality but here's the recipe. I don't know the website so I just took a picture of my print.
He forgets to note the vinegar addition; I added mine at the same time as the habs.

Yes I love sour with them, I put mustard in the pot with them, but malt vinegar is fine too. I've been putting what I have left of the homemade pepper flakes in there too.
yummy... but I have all of the greens I can deal with for now... one radish, greens and all, makes a meal... LOL.
It does for a fact! Goes good with eggs too by the way. Those radishes are fiery.
My mustard greens really took off! I tried a new variety this year, as I've been using the same variety for years, and I don't regret it. It's a 35 day that I don't remember the name of. I'm very impressed, the plants are too big, yet they still show no signs of bolting. The weather has been mostly mild but we've had hot days too. The flavor is good too, I have been pressure cooking them for 45 mins. When they were smaller they didn't need to be pressure cooked. I always take scissors and cut or "dead head" the tops so that they grow back.
The okra is huge, something like 8 feet tall, the base of them is reaching 2 inches, but I think they are going to get pulled up and burned soon so that I can plant my wheat.
You may be able to see a couple of my peppers in the photo, they still have blooms.
Beautiful work, i am so jealous that you are growing hot peppers and I'm thinking about buying a snowblower. Any tips on how you germinated them? How do you water the carton?
