127!! Thats how many Juliet tomatoe's Nora and I pulled out of the garden yesterday afternoon. Once again, we have a bunch more that are right there and looking to be picked in the coming days. They are ripening very quickly, and I am actually having a bit of trouble keeping up. To date I have really only lost two tomatoes to being over-ripe. I think thats pretty good, and I think its unrealistic to think that will be the max of it.
The first Jalapeño! I was actually contemplating taking 10-15 of the bigger ones off while they are green, as suggesting by several sources. While I was looking at them and decided where I was going to cut off I notice one way down on the bottom that was red. Pretty cool looking if I do say so myself. Generally its not great to leave the Jalapeños on the plant this long as they are only good for a few days, but if you plan on eating them right away, red is the hottest you can get this pepper.
Upcoming is pics of the future garden layout, and the nest of tomatoes.
