I've been having fun using my home grown peppers (see photos below)! I've had a good supply of peppers in late summer although my plants seem to have now stopped forming new flowers & new peppers. I pinched off a few growing shoots to see if that makes a difference in coming weeks. Next year I plan on growing chillis as I love hot peppers!
Variety:
Pepper (California Wonder), Thompson & Morgan Seeds, 30 seeds, £1.50 per pack.
Variety (below):
Nasturium Dayglow Mixed, Carters Tested Seeds, 35 seeds, 79 pence per pack.

| Lavender coloured Spring Onion petals are quite yummy as are nasturtiums! |

| Fun with an edible nasturtium (Don't eat the middle pistil and stamen bits). |

| I planted rocket seeds in small pots on a window sill a few weeks ago. Some baby leaves will be good added to my pasta pictured above! |
Very colorful! I never heard of rocket seeds---need to research that. Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog. Your Pepper looks great, did you grow from seed? I grew Jalapeno Peppers and Serrano. I love spicy and I use them for salsa! Organic is the way to go, no synthetic fertilizers or pesticides! I'm looking forward to following your posts. Have a great week! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Priscilla, I grew the peppers from seed and found quite easy to germinate (put a plastic bag over until you see growth, etc). For 2011 I have hot chilis on my grow list. I like spicy too and I love jalapenos. I like your blog as well!
