    The problem with some weeds is that if you don't kill the root they'll just keep coming back. And with some weed killers that are strong enough to kill the root, they're 'equal opportunity' and they'll kill your plants too.

    Yeah, I understand that. Not sure of the possibility of killing a large juniper though, they're like weeds too :D

    Got two full pans of beans the other day, for the first pick. Steamed them and ate em with a few big ribeyes. They are starting to pop big time.

    The star of my garden this year is a volunteer cucumber :anonymous:. Might get some bell peppers and one Arkansas Traveler tomato plant looks like it could produce. Patio plants look pretty good though :oops:

    Those look like Sweet Peas.
    You can use a Glycophosate-based weed killer on that pretty effectively, and junipers are fairly tolerant of it, I think. Just be careful not to overspray a lot onto the juniper or you may see some die-off.

    Thanks man. It's this type a 'spray it on the plants and let it sit and it will get absorbed and kill it off' type of deal?

    Yeah, hose the foliage down. Don't even need to get the whole plant, usually; just spray some on the base of the stem where it comes out of the ground, and then some on the leaves higher up. You don't need to totally saturate it.

    Ripped off all four mudflaps. Scratches all down both sides 6112’s up front on 3rd notch 5100’s in back with Toytech 1” block Skids & sliders from SOS Concepts I got rid of the 1” block and put on Wheelers 1 1/2” progressive AAL. SPC UCA. Be sure your standing on the drivers side when reading the instructions! I swapped sides so many times that I can swap UCA’s in 15 minutes. I put in the 3/4” spacer to eliminate the Taco Lean, and just got my 4th alignment. Traded the OEM rims for 17” Sport rims and a bora bora 1” spacer. I got my Firestone 285/70/17 MT2’s. Pelfreybilt gas tank skid and hi-lift jack should be here Friday. Looking at bumpers, but I think they will wait for next year. So far I’m happy with my build. I’ve done it all myself, leading to a lot of cussing and frustration, but it’s all mine.
    Are those habanero peppers?

    I believe Habaneros are a little shorter.

    Awesome. I grew habaneros last year, and was going to try the Carolina Reaper this year, but we opted out of a garden this year.
