2011 Gardens

[toyman]

Here's a pic of my garden this year. I planted 12 Roma tomato plants, 6 early girls, 12 jalapeno peppers, 6 sweet bananas, 3 zucchini and 6 eggplants. The tomatos and peppers are polluted with fruit this year. My wife planted some sunflowers in the backround that are getting big. After a few years of planting, we decided on only planting what we can use. We'll freeze the tomatos for sauce throughout the winter. I smoke the jalapenos, dehydrate them and then put them in a spice grinder for chili powder. The zucchini and eggplants we'll eat as they ripen.

Thanks! I was smoking some baby back ribs on my Big Green Egg yesterday and threw a few jalapenos on. They were delicious, but one (or two) were way up on the heat scale. I had to get a towel to wipe off the sweat I got the garden in late this year, due to all the wet spring weather we had. The ground really wasn't as dry as I would have liked it when I tilled it up the the 982/442, but the plants seem to be doing well. Late this week or early next week, I should be picking a lot of tomatoes.
