Gardening is always a wild ride where I live. Was 33c just on Friday.
The tomatoes and peppers aren’t going to like this at all. ~100mm of rain as well over a few days.

22 Tomato and 11 pepper plants, spacings a little tighter than it should be on some of the tomatoes, but it should be okay.
I’m planning on grabbing some more Asimov books and grab most of Martha’s MurderBot series, as well as Hugo and Nebula collections.
Any other sci-fi type stuff you guys recommend? I’m not a huge fan of the more fantasy stuff, although I agree Star Wars falls into that catagory.
Had my second carpal tunnel release surgery last week, so I couldn’t resecure the fan correctly with only one hand.
And now, the strong Cree Cob white lights are burnt out, so now I’m left with just the supplemental wavelengths and some smaller white LEDs. The Cree ones are a LITTLE strong for vegetable starters anyways. But these aren’t enough for this stage either now.
An assortment of pepper and tomatoe varieties.
Most lived, some died. They got a little too dried out over the weekend so the smaller ones shriveled. Just forgot about them, kid had a dance comp and then my mother passed. So I’m just glad most actually survived.
Still got another month atleast before hardening, that will give the peppers about 8 weeks, they’re 4 weeks now.
Tents a little full, I’m expecting not every transplant to take.
For tomatoes I have:
Gusto Halia
Jubilee
Cherry Roma
Beefsteak
Black Krim
Yellow pear shape
Green zebra
Rainbow blend
Get stuffed
For peppers:
Red bell
Fat and sassy
jalepeno (early)
Sweetie snack mix
Hungarian hot wax
Habanero
Red habanero
Shishito
Sweet
Mini bell mix
Early sunsation
Golden California
Purple Beauty
The full spectrum white light would be too intense on this light right now, it’s not adjustable, so I’ve got supplementary wavelengths on, they’re better for seedlings anyways.
Fan for airflow, humidifier since it’s dry as shit here.
Most have some true leaves coming in, but there’s still a dozen or so still sprouting as well on the heat mats.
They’re all peppers and most look like they have their taproot coming out of the seed as well. Hopefully some aren’t too deep.
At least, that’s what I assumed happened. It’s a first edition copy from 1999 as well.
A few different mixes of sweet peppers, but I also started jalapeño , shishito, habanero and Hungarian wax as well.
One of the sweet peppers are purple as well.
Got some stems coming out of the nodes where the single bract usually is.
From what I’ve been able to gather, I think they just have the writer wrong, it’s Isaac Asimov, and the book those two did together is The Space Merchants, which doesn’t appear to have to do with crime at all.
I’m currently reading “The Number of the Beast” by Robert Heinlein. Book is from the 1980s, and there’s a completely doubled up paragraph in the book! It spans two pages but the image shows enough I think.
