What about wine, maybe moonshine?

 

A quick Google search, no stores sell paw, paw fruit near me. It's grows in MA.

 

Yeah, @Barsoom prob knows a lot more than me about them. But what i read said, they ripen on tree. But ive also read they will ripen on counter like a banans...so i dont know who to believe

I can usually just spray aphids off with water.
None on my okra yet but I've had them before. Okra is just now setting on.

 

Marconi pepper and poblanos looking good

 

Nice. I've never tried pressure canning. I just do water bath on the pickled okra. I'm not going to get enough green beans this year anyway so I'll just freeze what I get. I'd like to try to can some green pepper relish this year if I get enough green tomato's.

 

Going to try that, thanks

I didn’t have these on any plants last year so I’m not sure where they came from

this is my first year trying okra, my mom planted some lasted year and I had no idea they grew into trees. Apparently her soil is much richer than mine. My plants aren’t growing nearly as well as hers are.
