If you dry those peppers out on trays in full sun, they can be reactivated later by removing the stems and seeds, and then sauteing them in avocado oil in a skillet as you would for any dried chile pod, and throwing them in the blender with tomatoes..tomatillos...onions...garlic....cilantro....well, you get the picture.

      I love how you do everything around your garden
      When you are the melon I thought to myself wish I can taste it
      I am also allergic

    I had some rodent or bug issues with my tomatoes on the first batch in summer but the second round in October did not have the problem and I picked them off when they were green before something got them. My husky cherry tomatoes were so sweet and Romas were good. They had to ripen off vine. My cabbage had cabbage worm but I got 2 edible heads. My squash was just perfect. My kale and turnip greens were good. My bell peppers were small it may have been the variety I chose and I did have a problem with the hornworms too. I tried to treat with Neem oil. I enjoyed eating my first harvest. I’m a new gardener.

    So fare, no problems with mice, rats, or tree rats, but I did have a bit of a problem with a couple voles a few weks back. My mother's cat got the first vole, my cat got the second. My biggest problems have been grubs, beetles, and horned worms. Yesterday, I did my last bean harvest from my Dragon Tongue Beans and Tongues of Fire beans, and harvested enough for 11 meals for two. The plants have been dropped, chopped up, and mixed into the soil--worm food, and the raised had has been replanted with a mix of Dragon Tongue, Tongues of Fire, and Cantare beans. Tomorrow, I will be harvesting Golden Sweet beans, Blue Lake bush beans, and a few pole beans that are ready. I'm harvesting cucumbers, but not as much as I hoped for, so I planted seeds for 6 Muncher cucumbers a few days ago-5 have started sprouting. I'm still waiting on peppers and tomatoes, and expect to get my first harvest of tomatoes in two or three weeks.

    Awesome harvest 🙌🌶🍅🥒 I have you to thank regarding learning about the jimmy nardello peppers 🌶 they’re amazing. I really like the sweet flavour. Here in Canada we have approximately a month left till we have fall frost. Hoping to get enough ripe tomatoes for making tomato soup and salsa. It might seem crazy but I have already been checking out new pepper varieties I hope to try next year 😊💚

    The blackberries were awesome looking. Good harvest. I had too many ants and it was so hot and humid in Fla. What grew best was the baby eggplant and two tomato plants and sweet peppers and cubanells. No cucumbers, last year I had tons. The ants in the soil and squirrels kill the rest😥

  • @thehealingberrygarden9608

    You are close to needing a truck in order to harvest (like Cliff). ;-) What an outstanding harvest, absolutely incredible! I just loved strolling through the garden with you! What a treat!

So glad you were able to harvest most for yourself.

    Sugar Rush Peach are sweet and hot but are not ripe until they turn creamy orange. I had to harvest mine yellow and leave them on the kitchen floor until they turned because they took a long time and it was going to freeze. Wait for that creamy orange color and you won't be sorry. Sweet and Hot. Yum.

    Sugar rush peach take FOREVER to ripen. Your harvesting prematurely, they go from lime to bright yellow to yellow to peach. If you wait it out till it turns peach the flavors are super intense!! Sweet heat!! These are some of my favorite peppers to grow the red ones and striped are delicious as well. Let them ripen you will not be dissapointed I promise you! Your garden looks great 👍🏾

    Beautiful bounty! Someone else may have already mentioned this... but sugar rush peach peppers will actually turn a pretty peach color when ripe. They stay at that yellow for a looonnnggg time though so patience is needed! And also they are sweet and fruity, but HOT! Mine also over wintered wonderfully and are producing like crazy this year 😁.

    Thank you for this video. It's encouraging that you stay upbeat and joyful in spite of critter problems. It helps to know that experienced gardeners like you have the same problems, but remain appreciative of your bounty. As a last resort, we invested in a full raised bed cage as a defense against squirrels. It's been the only effective method.
    Are these kind of pests a new development for you? Is it a result of lack of rain/alternative water source?
