This eggplant was highly productive this year. I was amazing. So I saved seeds.
For eggplant, I didn't ferment. I scooped out as many seeds as I could, and rinsed them off in a sieve with water. Then I let them dry on a paper towel for a few days, then made a paper envelope to store them in.
I decided to save seeds from my Tabasco pepper plant as well. This year my Tabascos were only minimally productive. I'd like to grow enough to make Tabasco sauce. I cut open a Tabasco pepper and removed the seeds. They are drying in a bowl and will go into a paper envelope soon.
How are your Columnar apples on B9 doing?
ReplyDeleteSo far, so good. Most are still short, about three feet. Some had a few apples this year.
ReplyDeleteIn two years they maxed out at 3 feet?
ReplyDeleteMost are about three feet. The tallest is six feet and had a couple of apples this year. That was the only one of these to get consistent watering and fertilizer. Some of the small ones had a couple of apples. They are definitely small. My other apples on Bud-9 are three or four feet tall in the same time span. This is about where I want them at this point. Another thought, most of the columnar on Bud-9 are in corners of the garden that were weedy this year and didn't get water or fertilizer. I may transfer one or two to container growing this winter, as an experiment. I have run out of room, so container might be a good option. - Daniel
