The Northeast is just two inches shy of its ANNUAL rainfall average as I
write this. The Chiles are bearing up, however, though darker leafed and
less blossomy than last year's bounty (extra lime and all). Overcast again
today, no wonder thoughts turn to more nubile knucklers. Soil is green with
acid loving algae, grass grows too fast, tomatoes are lush but not very
productive.
Seems just the right time for feeding lush hay to New Graniteshire's cows and
putting them on treadmills to produce electricity. OR, given all the
beaneaters and cow flops in your area, switching to methane gas to power the
power plants.
Speaking of power plants, the Biker Billy's continue to amaze. Though
greener than a tree frog, those Jalaps are immense. The Chimayos have
produced nearly twenty sizable red, wrinkled fruits with a little less heat
than tabasco. Most Chimayos are approx. the size of Poblanos which have been
disappointing in number. Guajillos are pod heavy but small and greener than
Jalaps.
