Great job on the onions! The rest of the plants look so healthy.

Thanks. I way over planted on Onions. Over 300 I think. Very Happy

We'll give away a lot of them. I agree, the pepper plants look healthy but their not producing like they did last year. I suspect they may have had a slight overdose of Nitrogen.

I'm not at all happy with my tomatoes. Some of them are turning brown and producing golf ball size fruit. Also having a huge problem with blossom end rot on both tomatoes and peppers. I try to water on a regular basis and give them extra calcium.

I'm trying not to complain though. All in all, it's been a pretty decent season so far considering all the heat we've had.
My water bill has gone up about $20 a month with all this heat and not much rain.

Nice plants, Mr. Booker! Here it is the same. Super cold/wet/hot/repeat.

Not sure what is going on out there. Some peppers have set fruits, no cukes or pole beans. Squahand melons have minis on here. Just a super strange summer?

Been curing my onions for a few weeks now and only had one go bad. Made some great Kabobs yesterday loaded with onions, red..yellow and orange bell peppers, Onions, Polish sausage and Onions. Did mention Onions. What a Face

Doing Teriyaki marinaded chicken Kabobs today with peppers and.. Yup.... You guessed it Un-Yon.

I just bought two have-a-hart traps to get the groundhog. Canceled the " Nuclear Option".
OR... As George Bush would say, "Nuke-U-ler" option. . Shocked

(what'd he say.?)

I'm married to a Missourian so I learned to drop a syllable, or add one, transpose R's and vowels, so I am bi-lingual.

Just feed them for a couple days without setting the trap. If they eat the food, then set the traps. Happy trapping.
