Hi everyone,
Yesterday (Sunday) I went to a swapmart. The night before I made about 4
litres of the chilli salsa/sauce that I emailed to the list about a week
ago. It filled 13 jars and I sold all of them. I made about $40 plus other
things that I sold.
While I was there I was surprised to see so many chilli plants for sale. I
couldn't resist them and I bought 6 new plants. None of them had any labels
and I don't know what the types are, but they're all very healthy. I
identify them by simply using numbers cut onto circles of cardboard then
stuck into the ground in front of the plants.
I also got a beaut bargain with plastic trays and pots. 25 pots and 40
plastic trays only cost me $2 aus.
I have heaps better news for me though, About 20 of my chilli seeds have
germinated. The seeds have been lying in a cardboard box about 1cm deep. Its
been covered with a blanket and watered often. The seeds were soaked for an
hour before hand in a mixture of 50% water and %50 vinegar. The seeds that
have come up are from a chilli bought from the shops, I don't know the type,
but it was yellow. I'm not really sure what I should do with them now.
(leave them as they are until they get bigger or plant them, I don't
know???)
Well I hope everyone's plants are doing great.
Cheers, Beau.
PS, if anyone wants the recipe again, email me please.
