i was going to say try and make a cage for them, but 2 inches, that's going to be pretty hard to defend..

Old cd's that can spin around and reflect off the sun..

The tomatoes went a bit crazy. I'm going to put up some post and tie them up. We're supposed to get rain this week too.

I planted 8 tomato plants this year along with 8 pepper plants. I don't think I can eat another tomato. heres a day harvest. them little peppers on the right are freaken fire.

@wascaptain nice harvest! Oh and what kind of pepper

I'm going to pickle these pepperoncini
Old pic I have a bunch now can't even eat them fast enough

Today's harvest.. Dinner should be good tonight.

I grabbed a recipe online. Didn't cover my peppers with the brine. But first time ever pickling peppers. We'll see how it turns out.

Next one I'll try a different recipe. Some hash sounds good in it too. Hmmm

Hey triple what was the recipe? Vinegar, and spices? I need to make some with some yellow peppers.

Ya vinegar, oregano , garlic , kosher salt and a little bit of sugar.

Yes i had tomatoes like that then the next day the plant was bare! I was like who tha fuq?? But it impossible for a human to enter my back yard without getting chewed up by my dog.. so then there where squirrels.. mutha fuqing squrrils! What do you guys do about them squirrels??

Haven't had squirrel problems. My dog chases em out I guess. I do see a lot perched on the fence. Maybe a nice old fashion sling shot...or bbgun.

Reminds me. One time I was driving and a damn squirrel had a suicide decision.

Quiet road and I see a squirrel. Its going to the right side. So I go around on the left. As soon as I turn my wheel the damn squirrel bolted back right under my damn tire. I saw it just have a look like "Ya fuck that I'm done!!"

Window rolled down and I heard a POP! Then I check the rearview and I see the smashed body and it's tail up in the air. Twitching....

Lol I felt bad though

Super good looking veggies.

That reminds me of the time when I was a young kid and growing up we always had 3 or 4 cats and one day I was in our backyard and I saw one of the cats stocking a bird in the grass. I wanted to scare it away so the cat would not get it, so I tossed a big round moveable lawn sprinkler toward it and hit the bird and killed it ;-( I learned that day it's best to leave things alone, nature can as a rule take care of its self..

Pellet gun. Or a trap. Squirrels are dumb. I set out live traps with peanut butter. Into the pond it goes when one is caught.
