It's been fun figuring out what vegetable plants will and will not grow in various sized containers. Most die almost immediately or look so sickly that I feel terrible for them. Some thrive. And then there are the “bonsai vegetables”: plants that seem to be perfectly happy, but grow unusually small.

These nasu (Japanese eggplant) fall into that last category. The plants are about a third the size of normal, flowered and fruited way early, and the fruit are almost bite sized. Unfortunately the also don't taste very good, possibly because I'm misjudging when to pick them. But they are quite pretty.

And then the tomato sauce that didn't get used this weekend gets frozen for later use.

Believe it or not, these are peppers and not xenomorph eggs or some kind of weird succulent. These pods are from a cross between a Mattapeño and another mutant variety.

I'm 8 days into a little experiment comparing store bought seed starter mix to some unsanitized sphagnum based mix I made.

So far, the difference between the two is stark!

We got a late start on the tomatoes but our peppers are coming along fine! Peppers grown from seeds harvested last year from a grocery store red pepper.

One look and you can see why Lacinato kale is known as Dinosaur kale. Normally, a cool season vegetable, I tried anyways. ;)

Hello Fediverse! We are a small urban farm growing super-hots and other tasty peppers in Tuscaloosa, Alabama since 2019. We will mainly be posting about our garden but also pepper profiles for the ~50 varieties we grow and pictures of Big Aubs the pepper guard cat. During grow season, come see us at the Tuscaloosa River Market!

Looking forward to seeing more of the pepper community on Mastodon and connecting with other growers!

Garden Update: 6 tomato plants of differing varieties all full of fruit just starting to go red, Portuguese peppers and bell peppers all ready for harvest, French beans & butternut squash soon!

We ate the broccoli + pattypan squashes already, getting 2 cucumbers a week, and we have so much basil I think I might start a pesto business on the side!

The chickens are now 17 weeks old, so hopefully we get some eggs in the next few weeks too!

I've been picking the smaller tomatoes for several weeks, but these are the first two big tomatoes from our garden.
