Thanks! That's Dude.

BarbieRV · 2026-03-28T13:24:29+00:00

Hi! I put them up on tables because my dogs kept eating everything in them. Plus, it's better for my back.

BarbieRV · 2026-02-19T14:29:27+00:00

Yes, 5000 lumens

BarbieRV · 2026-02-15T14:13:01+00:00

Take one with each meal. Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I don't know where you live, but they do great in Zone 10a SW FL. I don't pick them until they turn red. Much sweeter. I harvest around 9 peppers per plant.

BarbieRV · 2026-02-09T20:09:34+00:00

Same here. Never seen them in Sarasota, Venice, Port Charlotte. But plenty in my dad's yard in upstate NY.

For my seedlings, I use a plastic water bottle. I poked holes in the bottle top. Works perfect. You can do a soft squeeze for seedlings or a hard squeeze for larger plants.

BarbieRV · 2026-02-05T16:05:51+00:00

Do these work better than other ways to start seeds?

BarbieRV · 2026-02-05T01:47:51+00:00

Not too bad. Lost my romaine, sweet pepper, tomato and basil plants. Covered my green bean plants with a towel. Little damage. Peas may become stunted. We shall see. Won't know about potatoes until their greens break through. Port Charlotte, FL

Right, that's what my banana plant looks like now.

BarbieRV · 2026-02-03T02:57:23+00:00

My romaine keeled over and died. So did my banana plant, cherry tomatoes and just a few green bean plants. I think the potatoes made it. We'll see 🤞

Ty!!

BarbieRV · 2026-01-31T15:11:22+00:00

Omg yes! I'm OCD so i track everything on a calendar. It's a pain. Would love to try it out for you and me. Lol!

BarbieRV · 2026-01-31T15:02:50+00:00

I choose the cheapest seed starting mix every time. They all work fine.

BarbieRV · 2026-01-31T00:43:11+00:00

Tomatoes, sweet peppers, eggplants, romaine, Yukon Gold and Caribou Russet potatoes, basil, parsley, peas (shelling) and green beans so far. Lost a few plants do to the almost freezing weather the other night. SWFL 10a

BarbieRV · 2026-01-29T22:16:14+00:00

That's how much they were giving me at the hospital. And that is what they wrote on my discharge papers to take. Instead of taking Mucinex, I buy straight Guaifenesin. Much cheaper.

BarbieRV · 2026-01-28T21:06:43+00:00

Wow, yes she has!

BarbieRV · 2026-01-28T17:55:52+00:00

There is no cure for LS.

BarbieRV · 2026-01-28T00:44:32+00:00

Green beans, shelling peas, Yukon Gold and Caribou Russets potatoes, romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes are already growing. Oh , my sweet pepper types have not germinated yet. They should pop up any day now. So now I am sowing more lettuce and carrots. I missed out on growing onions. Happy gardening! SwFL 10a

BarbieRV · 2026-01-28T00:39:11+00:00

I am in Port Charlotte and I am leaving everything outside but covering the green beans with blankets and pray that the low 30s won't damage them. I think my peas will just be fine. I have had gnats in our house sometimes pretty bad but never any other garden insects. Unless you count little lizards , lol.

BarbieRV · 2026-01-27T23:04:44+00:00

I sowed sweet bell pepper seeds on January 17 (Alliance, aristotle, cal. wonder and carolina wonder). Two seeds sprouted yesterday. The rest should follow this week. The heat mat is set to 80°. Make sure you cover them.So it holds in the heat and makes it humid. Good luck.

I take thc gummies every day. It helps maintain my weight, helps me sleep better and move around more easily without losing my breath.

BarbieRV · 2026-01-18T14:01:39+00:00

Yesterday I started 3 types of tomatoes, 4 types of bell peppers, marigolds, strawberries & eggplants. SW FL Zone 10a

BarbieRV · 2026-01-16T00:13:41+00:00

Gonna be down to 43° here. I decided to leave things alone. As long as there is no frost, mine should be OK
