Marigolds

November 4th Lill garden, peppers

Finally they are beggining to ripen and change colors. The jalapeno and banana will be pickled, the habenero will be dried.

November 4th Lill garden

The small Roma and cherry tomato are thriving and continue to produce daily. Highs in the 70's and lows in the 50's seems to be perfect. Also, the heirlooms are just beggining to change colors as well, by the end of the week we will have picked the remaining ones and put them in bags to ripen indoors. Prefer to let them ripen on the vine but with winter time comming soon all creatures are out looking for food caches.
