>>2482 >they cooked for good and how do you know when to give up? Not for good, they are just hurting. If I was growing for a farm/commercially, I’d yoink them up now. IMO it’s time to give up when ever you think it’s time to give up
not worth the effort, or resources I like to see those long shots pay out so I do my best to keep everything alive as possible.
>basil Is temperamental for a herb. It does like sun, dat heat plus sun will fuck it up p gud.
>peppers In my experience the sun/heat won’t do much to hurt them unless you aren’t watering them once a day
in excessive aka 100+ degree temps you’re better off not watering them everyday unless you’re hitting 100+ degrees

>>2405 We use beer trap and egg shells to protect tomatoes.
Salt might not be a good idea for the soil.
I heard ashes are good. Problem is can't really produce enough ash just by doing some outside cooking, and burning garden waste is prohibited.

>>2506 >ash from outside cooking If you’re cooking with charcoal briquettes I wouldn’t use the ash because of contaminates in the briquette. Also unless you’re lighting it with just paper it’s not a good idea to use the ashes because of residual matter left from starting fluid.
also yolo so w/e >>2507 >how’s crops? Not going bad, getting some burned leaves on the tomatoes. Still producing nicely. Only just hitting the hunnids in the past couple weeks. Compared to last year it’s been a walk in the park keeping stuff alive.

Because state wants it. Have to be bagged and/or put it into bins, then the garbage company takes it away. It is used in composting yards and biomass power plants (so they burn it instead).

Pruned my tomatoes, half of them were straight up dead leaves/stalks. Dunno wtf happened this year. A lot of budys at the farmers market had been saying they had to use more fertilizers than usual, water more, etc. relatively calm summer considering the location. Had a wonky temp swing one week I was out of town working. Dropped to the 70s, then back up into the hunnids, grasshoppers were out of fucking control this year too. Anyways:>pics Sowed radish, carrot, kale, chard, spinach, thyme, red onion, dill, and parsley for the fall/winter garden today. Fertilized too. Peppers have been doing pretty well, my hybrid brandywines did great until it got hot. Jury is still out on the San Marzanos. Will keep updating/lurking.

>>2673 damn them tomahtoes are hortin, weird
prob a dumb question but did you use the seeds from last year, and if you use this years seeds will it increase next years hardiness? not sure how long that stuff takes
>radish, carrot, kale, chard, spinach, thyme, red onion, dill, and parsley thats a sick fall line up

>>2686 >did you use seeds from last year For all the peppers, and the brandywine
left side looking at front of camper yes.
>increase next years heartiness Yes, it will increase heartiness as well. By replanting seeds from previous years, you are bio-engineering at an incredible basic level. That’s why my spinach has started to do so well here. Normally spinach is the most temperamental green to grow, my seeds have a roughly 75% germination rate as of now. Actually noticed some sprouted already, they are second generation. My budy who used to run a farm is always impressed with that.
it was a tough start though, I went through two years, and about 5 full seed packs before I got anything to grow, let alone live long enough to seed Anonymous 09/14/24 (Sat) 18:37:05 No. 2724
first brine attempt into ferment for two weeks
1.5 cup RO filtered water
1 Tbsp iodized salt (sea salt next time but curious)
20g tabasco pepps (scovilles on this batch kicks the shit out of my jalaps for some reason)
>>2695 two years is way quicker than i thought. going to save seeds now thanks gardenbro

>>2724 The seeds have to
mostly be heirloom, otherwise they tend to not germinate. Not really sure why, however, my serrano peppers
were store bought did germinate. tl;dr by and large the only seeds you will get to germinate are heirloom, organic doesnt mean shit as far as seeds are concerned.
Nice looking pickles/hot sauce let us know how it turns out!
Anonymous 09/22/24 (Sun) 18:02:17 No. 2734
turns out this brand of iodized salt is indeed iodized, zero fermentation
washed and rethrew with himalayan salt. no clue what i was thinking
>>2733 hmm. read somewhere they can fudge the heirloom label now too. fda needs
hanging saved seeds from "heirloom" tabasco and german queen mato's during salsa batch, i'll see
also you guys prob already know this but cooking down salsa was new to me and it rules

>>2735 threw entire batch in after blending, low bubble simmered until tomatoes got dark red
lowers scovilles a bit though so i'd rec more initial heat on pre simmer taste if you try it
autism warning: came across picrel
going to try air frying a couple pepps and adding them in after bubbling next. hat breaking out the smoker for a small batch of salsa

>>2882 That I’m not sure of, I always wonder myself. I bought my seeds at first from a small hydro shop in town. The brand was High Mowing, they did great. You should be able to buy them online. Also there are pretty good vendors on ebay, the seedlings from seed I collected from last year seem to be doing pretty well so far. In that I mean, at lest the sprouted, so that’s a good sign.
