weekly garden report

Each pepper plant has three peppers (even though one plant is much larger than the other). The peppers are still green and have grown quite a bit since last week. (The peppers are in the white pot and in the blue pot that is not on a step. I've been moving things around a bit to try to optimize everything's sunlight.)

All of the cherry tomatoes are still green and there are more small ones. I cannot tell if I have aphids.

I tried using some fresh basil on pizza the other day. How should I have done that differently?

Yay garden!

Did you put the basil on before or after you cooked the pizza? For fresh herbs, they go on when the pizza comes out of the oven, so residual heat can wilt them just enough. If they go in before cooking the heat will dessissicate them. (I should go find the proper spelling of that poor word.)
