My summers bounty thread

Couple years ago I got into peppers, I really don't know why. Anyway, this is my pick for the day. Got some plans for my harvest but feel free to comment. I figure I'll be getting these sorts of hauls every couple of days. Every year our setup gets slightly more sophisticated so I have high hopes.

I'm hot and tired so I can post better photos later.

Baby peppers, did I say we were sophisticated?

Got a simple canning kit the other day.

Posted some picture from today in the above thread. I did 8 pints of sweet long and jalapeno's today. Was my first pick of the year.

 

Nice, what recipe did you use?

 

we also have a garden and haven't gotten nearly as many peppers as you have, we have like 24 plants that we started in early May. They get a good 8-9 hours of direct sunlight. We have just gotten a bunch of jalapeños so far and one bell pepper

 

That pic of the baby plants is from March the 24th, we started ours way early this year. We got those dirt disc's that you soak in water and expand, made a huge difference and was way easier than packing dirt into each individual cell. The pre package dirt also prevents root damage.

 

One from the USDA. Vinegar, water, salt, with pickle crisp, mustard and celery seed in the jar. Everyone loved them last year.

I guess I'll make this my BS thread. Pouring some drop shot molds.
Got this in the mail.

 

I also enjoy fishing and making tackle.
