<<By and Fellow Ch.D.s, <<I have a month left in the growing season.>> Aren't you lucky, My typical first frost is Sept 10th << We all got fair warning from Tough-Love Dave that Habs take a little longer <<than package instructions might suggest to become mature plants. Per instructions from Pepper Gal, SB's take 90 days and Habs take 120 days. But don't tell that to mine, I have habs and SB's ripening at the same time. << I'll be out here in the Connecticut Valley building frost roofs over my raised <<beds to stretch the season, if necessary. My frame is up, and plastic ready, just waiting for Dennis to get out of here. << Green peppers ain't so bad, if that's how it goes, but there are <<sooooooo bloody many - yikes. Yuk <<(Doing ripening dance) <<Gareth the ChileKnight fearing the Chilly Nights Ditto on Chilly Nights Byron ------------------------------
