hardest job I ever had was polinating (self and cross) corn.

strangest job I ever had was a pee catcher at the greyhound park.

I grew about 12 plants last year, and was having problems with the blossoms dropping off of the plant. I was wondering if anybody here might know why that was happening. I cant find to much about it on the web, the nursery said it could be a calcium defincincy

I was fertilizing with miracle grow, they also said the miracle grow could have had to much nitrogen in it.

all natural here. If you go that route make sure you know where it is coming from. Many places sell from animals that are eating wild plants and you get a garden full of weeds.

nope, no cows, but that would be funny as hell if one showed up in my yard. LOL

I used to have gardens every year........many of which were the envy of the neighborhood.....we are talking 3 foot cucumbers here.

My neighbor is a beef farmer and I got my "fertilizer" from him. He had one barnyard that got full sun all day so it was covered with a layer of sundried poop.....almost odorless, and dry and crusty.

This stuff was FANTASTIC.......Id put about 2-3 yards in my little plot and till it in; never had ANYTHING but great luck.

I DID, however, use plastic to prevent weed growth.

I started growing habeneros when my dog kept eating all the jalapenos off the plant. She left the habeneros alone

I can't believe you dog ate jalepenos. That is messed up. I wish I could have seen the first habanero being eaten. LOL

I had a dalmation that loved persimmons. My parents have several of these trees around their home. My dog would go crazy over these things. The deer love them too.

I didn't see the first hab eaten but they were generally left alone.

UI always knew when the Jala s were eaten because her waterbowl would be empty and I headr a slurping sound in the bathroom

anyone want to part with some seeds? I may be able to reciprocate with a local delicacy known as the

'boonie pepper' they grow wild on Guam (out in the boonies) and they tend to be rather sporty!

CWFoster, I can send you some white bullet, congo black, carribean red, and regular habanero seeds. I got some leftover from this year.

Email sent! Thanks! I'll talk to Tom (the guy that lives behind the house I'm trying to buy) he's Chamorro, and they have boonie peppers all that time! They grow in the wild here.
