What did you harvest today (other plants)? - Page 24

sandy0225 · 08-05-2011, 06:26 PM

picked 15 10# size boxes of tomatoes for market tomorrow along with 2 bushels bell peppers and 1/2 bushel summer squash. we have garlic and onions and okra and cauliflower to sell tomorrow too. A friend is bringing me 18 dz ears of corn to sell tomorrow so we'll have a busy day. And loaded up the other truck with 12 starfighter oriental lilies in good bloom, 2 large basjoo, 4 minis, butterfly bushes, hardy hibiscus, blackeyed susans, 2 flats of herbs and 6 hard to kill sun-loving hanging baskets. Should be a good day.

These are pics of peppers and tomatoes I harvestad yesterday

Peppers are grown under heavy shade cloth and thats the reason they are so big, others grown in full sun are hardly quater of this size. Next season I ll have to make same protection for tomatoes, most of this year crop has sun burns.

makes sence

right?

today I picked 200 lbs of slicing tomatoes, 20 boxes, not counting the canning tomatoes that weren't pretty enough to put in boxes.
down from last week though, when I picked 32 boxes full--The funny thing is though, keep in mind that this storage area is our living room! lol...

lkailburn · 08-19-2011, 11:20 AM

sandy are you a commercial grower for farmers markets or something?

-Luke

sandy0225 · 08-19-2011, 05:24 PM

Yes, I grow plants all year long, but in the summer we plant every little bit of ground we have in market gardens for the farmers market and our farm stand. I take veggies and plants May-October on Weds. and Saturday to our local farmers market. I also do mail order, we have a veggie stand set up here at the house, and then in the fall I do pumpkins and mums, gather in all the perennials for winter storage, and start on Christmas wreaths. After Christmas, I order in all my seeds and starter plants, relax and clean the house just a bit, and start over planting seeds in January.
This is one garden of three, the rows are about 100 feet long. Guess who grows all the plants for my market garden? I raised all these since they were seeds...the peppers in the immediate foreground are bhut jolokia

Started some $1.00 apiece seeds of Bih Jolokia in Feb and one made it. Just harvested the first 3 red ones for seed and I got gassed good. The fumes in the kitchen started to build up and I ran outside to finish. I of course used latex gloves but did not expect this kind of potency.

My sinus passages tingled for the rest of the day and I did not need any Nasonex before bed.

Man these guys are tough!! One day I hope to get my hands on the world's newest hottest pepper - the Naga Viper. I did a post on this one earlier.

Plan to use these guys to keep critters at bay in the back yard. Also will cook up some channa masala using a small amt of Jolokia. Channa Bhatura - one of the worlds best meals without meat.

Has anyone tried cooking with the Jolokia?

Darkman · 10-10-2011, 11:18 PM

Still harvesting Bell peppers, Ancho peppers , Jalepeno peppers, Okra, three bananas off an Orinoco and watermelons. Oh and one Sunburst tangerine.

tbaleno · 10-14-2011, 08:03 PM

Harvested some hot peppers today as well. Not sure what kind they are but they are very short and very very hot with lots of seeds. I can only take very small nibbles. Nice flavor and super good heat.
