Started some more hot peppers (love heat). I planted two containers of long cayenne and two containers of jalapeno peppers. For those of you playing along with the home edition, I have 2 mature scotch bonnets that produced a lot this year, 1 ghost pepper I plan to transplant soon, and now some jalapeno and long cayenne. Realistically, I'll probably need more jalapeno since they have more uses but it's a start.
The black beans I planted are slowly coming up. I haven't done the research yet, but it seems they are taking longer than I would expect to germinate. All the other beans I grow tend to emerge within 3-4 days and these were planted 8 days ago. Still, they are coming up now so I can't complain too much. The lentils haven't started emerging at all. I think the heavy rains this week compacted the mix and pushed the lentils to the surface. I'll give it a few more days, but I may need to put something else in there (Love black beans so maybe more of them!)
Miscellaneous:
The ginger I planted is looking real good so I planted another piece of root I broke off from what I use for making ginger tea. Bought another pineapple yesterday so I cut the top off and it's drying now. I'll pot it tomorrow. Planted some chive seeds in a container to add to the herb garden, need to plant some thyme soon.
