http://veggiegardenblog.blogspot.com/2014/02/peppers-planted.html
Friday, February 21, 2014. I seeded my peppers today along with a few other things. Last year I planted peppers on Feb 14, this year I decided to hold off one more week due to the whole polar vortex nonsense. Granny. Graciously supplied me with the majority of my bell pepper seeds this year. With so many varieties I will be doing a mini trial to see what grows best. Pepper varieties this year will include:. Quadrato Giallo D'Asti (Yellow). Quadrato Tosso D'Asti (Red). Happy Yummy Sweet (Orange). It looks...

Tuesday, July 8, 2014. In this bed I am growing Granny's. Peppers. Late last year I was admiring Granny's beautiful peppers and I had asked if they tasted as good as greenhouse peppers and that I had never had any luck growing sweet peppers. Before I knew it I had five varieties of peppers arrive in the mail. To return the favor I sent her charentais melon,. Diplomat F1 Broccoli, which I started from seed this year. I think normally I would have already picked broccoli. Must be due to the cold sp...This ...

Peas and Petals: August 2010
http://peasandpetals.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Wow, no way has it been a month already since I posted! Time flies, especially when you're busy. Farm work is definitely an all-day affair. Since Myrtle Glen is a homestead, rather than a production-based operation, there's a lot of other responsibilities that come along with living here: cooking, cleaning, timing the use of the solar and cob ovens just right during the day, taking care of the animals, and of course, putting food up! I canned my first pickles last night! Of cour...
