Had little success until this year. Seem to be doing better with some fertilizer. :Dimageimageimageimageimage

    Works fine for us. Did not buy tomatoes for the past month. Herbs are amazing. I am somewhat disapointed with the jalapeños but the "basket of fire" is on fire! We have a few bell peppers.

    Not quite pot-growing. Tomatoes, peppers, jalapeños, habaneros, okra, and various herbs.
    They all were grown from seed in my greenhouse.

    Medium BGE, New Braunfels off-set smoker, 3-burner Charbroiler gasser, mainly used for Eggcessory  storage, old electric upright now used for Amaz-N-Smoker.

    After a couple of years we gave up. The 14 +or- deer won out in our yard.
    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

    @Mickey. Try planting Society Garlic around the plot next year. They won't come near the place.

    Thanks, did plants twice and no luck in getting it to grow. Open to any suggestions.

    @paqman-I'm with you on the jalas.  Most anemic output to date in the past several years.  May have crossed the threshold but they have been in the ground since early May.  BTW-nice spread.  Enjoy!

    We had our first snow this morning. Time to harvest the last few remaining tomatoes and peppers. I was quit surprised to see that the banana tree yielded two bananas!

    I'm doing San Marzano, Early Girl, tamatillos, Tabasco peppers, jalapeño, Ghost peppers, sweet and spicy basil, oregano, lemon thyme, and cilantro. Only the San Marzanos have not done well.
