RE: Adventures of a 100% vegan grown farm- August 6th 2017

in #vegan7 years ago

Ugh this year's gardening has been harsh for us here in North East BC Canada. My leafy greens are holes everywhere. The flee beetles have been nasty. We cannot harvest none of them.

The insects and bugs have been bugging the summer squash too 😫😫😫

Love love love your jolokia plants!!!

We didn't plant them this year, only some Hungarian wax peppers.

Here is hoping you will harvest awesome goodies!!

Sort:  

The jolokia have recovered well, after 10 days of harsh rain, we got real worried for a bit, as the leaves yellowed. Now, they are producing between 30 and 50 peppers per plant. Its an important crop for us.

That is wonderful to hear. Normally we have winter from October to June (the joy of living in the north 😫), but this year has been a lot of thunderstorms and a couple of tornado-to be (so unusual for us), which was worrying a lot (still is for neighboring areas as wildfires raging sadly). So yeah too many bugs, too moist soil, lots of rotting crops in the garden for us.

Super jealous for the jolokia for sure!!

The Jolokia has a pretty specific technique used on it. I haven't seen it through a whole life cycle yet, but the results have been the same for about 6 years on other plots. This is the first attempt in clay soil.
