I'm making large batches of hot sauce and pickled eggplant at the end of the season.

What is the temperature of the hot sauce?
Surface of the sun hot lol. I don't add ghost peppers or crazy hot peppers, serranos are the perfect heat and when they're fermented they get both hotter and mellower, hard to describe.

I make one with ornamental tie snapdragons
It's been a while for this thread. It's like summer today, so I'm hardening off my eggplant and a few broccoli plants.
Open sez me, eggplant. Still a couple weeks before planting. Got some very cool nights here until the 18th.
I have one pot plant, Gorilla Frost. Been torturing it for 4 months lol. Being in a window, it wants to flower so I'm repotting again and banging into a 12/12 tent. Yes, I'm planting it deep!

That’s a sherbinski?
Yup. GG4xGG5
Nice. I’ll be interested to see how that turns out!
Getting ready to plant some stuff. Beds at this point are almost entirely recycled promix hp from indoors on top.of piled up decaying brush and cardboard.. And weeds, lots of weeds. They come so fast, especially violets. They are pretty easy to clean up if you have a good buzz and a hori hori. Broccoli taking off now too.
These eggplants get their own bed this year. I started them way too soon, they should be happy to get planted.
That would last me a year. Jealous.
15 years ago these beds were really pretty but completely unsustainable. Constant war with the weeds. Then we simplified to a more formal scheme with boxwoods and dwarf roses. Installed landscape cloth topped with mulch. The mulch broke down quickly then became colonized by weeds, and this winter killed the roses dead and damaged a boxwood. This time we went from 3 boxwoods down to 2 and much larger rose varieties. And I am installing a double layer of heavy duty landscape cloth and topping that with a couple inches of river rock. I also lifted every edging block, and removed the creeping weeds from between them. I hope I can keep this neat for 15 years, I get tired of do overs.
Lack of snow and dog pee zotzed my lower lawn pretty good last winter. That's next on the restoration list.

Everything perky and growing fast. 730ppm of Maxigrow at pH 5.8. Seems to not be burning anything so far. I'll be pumped the day I see a blossom on the berry plants.
Going fast now.
