…of my own success. In an earlier blog, “Im a Murderer!” ( https://thecrankycrowe.ca/2022/04/27/im-a-murderer/) I “showed off” my experimental efforts in the greenhouse. Today I need to take care of the jungle that the ‘plant room’ (for anyone wondering, no, it isn’t a grow op) has turned into, so I’ll share some of the successes (and fails) in here from January until now.

I’ll admit to have been busy enough I’ve been unkind to the Komodo peppers; they need a LOT more water than I’d been noticing!

We’ve had our first taste of fresh tomatoes this week! *DISCLAIMER* I may have accidentally on purpose broken off a cluster last week, so I did make sure to have a breakfast of eggs and fried green tomatoes.

The peppers are going gangbusters! As soon as I start seeing overnight Temps consistently above, say, -5°C outdoors, we’ll need to get these to the greenhouse- they still have all summer to grow.





….comes learning opportunities. The Komodo, Ancho and Ghost peppers all have had lower sprouting and survival results, as was kind of expected, but we’re learning, and these can be ‘fixed up’ without doing much harm.

So that’s it for now, some very leggy tomatoes that need to be transplanted ASAP, stay tuned, follow along, no worries!
