I did get a pretty good haul...I'll have to get a picture for you. I didn't get a chance to weigh everything yet, but it filled my rather large harvesting basket!. Looks like you are really having them come in steady now. Isn't summer grand? ;) Cheers!

this is a great day!

Oh my! Delightful!

Very Nice!

WOW !!!

Whatcha gonna do with all those peppers? Serranos?

You got some awesome looking soil, and frame work going on, Good job!, looks nice

Wowee those pictures look amazing and mouth-watering! :D

Thanks everyone :)

Michele--i usually will dry into pepper flakes all of the peppers combined. i use what i need for the day then what is left over turns into flakes. today will be rotel for canning! i have out 1/2 pound of flakes thus far, i am not real happy until i get a good amount of ghost in the mix and i only have 5 to date. when i get a real good n hot mix i will share with friends and family that enjoy hot like i do.

A lovely haul for one day! Would you mind sharing how you make your pepper flakes?

yesterday i had serrano, cayenne, japaleno, banana (mild), and ghost. i put them all in the dehydrator. when they are good and dry i put them in an old "fry daddy" strainer which i like because it has large holes that seeds can fall thru then i take a "pestel" and mash them until it all falls thru the holes then i freeze it. i mix any and all peppers (well not bell peppers) i have harvested and at the end of the season i will have a really nice super extra spicy mix which you cant come close to heat in a typical store. i have a coffee bean grinder which i am planning on making fine flakes as well by taking the current mix and grinding it.

this season i am growing serrano, japaleno, cayenne, habanero, ghost and scorpion.

my favorite thing it use it is in pho ga which is simply thai chicken noodle soup. i will put it on just about everything especially hoagies, grilled stuff, rice and mexican dishes. my family likes hot, but not crazy hot...which is why i make it in the first place. i love love love hot!
