Home Depot was having a sale on their large vegetable plants, 5 for $10. which is about 50% off. It appears that the grower was overstocked because of the cold, wet spring.
So, I decided to do all large tomato plants this year, except for the Roma tomatoes, since I dry most of those and early harvest isn’t important.
Here’s what got planted:
- 2 Early Girl Hybrids
- 1 Big Boy Hybrid
- 1 Big Beef Hybrid
- 1 Heinz Super Roma Hybrid
- 1 Red Beefsteak Hybrid
- 2 German Queen Heirloom
- 1 Mr. Stripey Heirloom
- 1 Cherokee Purple Heirloom
- 1 Black Prince Heirloom
- 2 Lemon Boy Hybrids
In the pepper bed by the back fence, I worked in manure and mushroom compost and planted:
- 4 Hot Hungarian Banana Peppers
- 4 Jalapeno Peppers
