Let's Do Some Harvest Photos

That corn is absolutely beautiful! It looks like jewels! Love the bean selection too! Those tomatoes should be on the cover of a magazine, Steve!

I found this squash that I forgot I planted. Argonaut winter squash- around 16 inches tall. It can grow to 27 inches and 30 lbs. Yikes! What was I thinking? I thought it was so huge until I looked up what I had planted. This is just a baby! It will turn a light orange.

I harvested some sweet potatoes yesterday. This was the first time I tried them and they did great!

Everybody's harvest pictures are so great! Marshall, that corn looks as beautiful as any gem, just gorgeous!

This is the Gaspe Flint Corn. Even more special. Thanks to Thistle for the seed. I did try to cross some with the Japonica this year, but I failed to realize the time zone differences these two varieties are in. Gaspe was drying ripe by the time Japonica's first tassles peeked out. I plan on succeeding next year, and easily keeping most of them pure, but crossing a few.

I can't believe I got Takanostume (claw of the eagle) peppers to mature in Minnesota! I took this picture about a week ago and now the whole plant is nearly red. This summer has been abornmally hot compared to other years so it probably like the consistent heat. I also got some Tobascos to mature, too!

That's a healthy Pepper plant!!! Unusual Peppers. Is that a frutescens species?

I've got some of those, HPQ! And yes, they ripen here.

They are soooo hot! This is the 2nd year out of 3 I have grown Takanotsume - had to take a year off to decide if I could handle that much heat!

Really, I can't but I've got a neighbor . . .
