You may wonder why I harvested the green tomatoes? Well, I am cleaning my balcony to get ready for Fall because we will be travelling in the next few weeks. I left the container peppers to let them grow more and perhaps they will still get red too. The nights are getting colder and its hard for the tomatoes to ripe, well the eggplants are ready so I thought of harvesting them today. After a few days, the tomatoes will get red , that I am sure of.

I remember the times, The caretaker of our avocado finca in Spain had a huge ground planted with tomatoes, and every time or season , we were given huge green tomatoes from his harvest. They became red after a few days.

It´s been 19 days since I gave an update on the peppers that were attacked by the grubs and since that time when the grubs were removed, the fruits came out one by one and got bigger , and there were plenty of flowers that developed and so the following images show how healthy they are as of today.

I harvested two peppers since I would like to add them to the Squash/ Eggplant dish I plan on cooking tomorrow.

Small harvest....

I did not have many eggplants to harvest this time because the bush I have were damaged during the cold months in Spring so that the flowers kept on falling down. Besides, the main branch of the bigger plant was cut when hubby was trying to water the tomatoes behind it. See what the guys do when their wives are out of town! LOL!

So this is the update on my container plants... I will cook the harvested veggies above, it will be yummy, promise!

Have a nice start of the week.... I´ll see you around!

Hello day.... you better gather eggshells , wash them and dry them, either you ground them or crush. Unya imong ihalo sa soil... it will decay as fertilizer... Also if duol ka sa mga coffee shops ask for their brewed coffee or lose tea rest, they are good fertilizers... One member I know from my gardening chat... she always asks Starbucks if she could have the used brewed coffee rest. You try asking them, just try.

I normally love harvesting pepper green because of the stress of waiting till it become red on its tree. Anytime I harvest green pepper it will surely become red faster

That is a good idea! I am still hoping that they will still grow big before harvesting... With just about a week or two, they will still grow for sure. Thanks for dropping by and for the good comment.
