Ok, so i still crash not do much of anything but am fling little things. So my plans this weekend is to have Mark help me do some clean up.
Bounty... I am keeping the Sweet Heats in there but will plant the Jalapeno Early in the other side (to join in on Mike's Jalapeno GAL). They are said to grow 12 to 18" and maybe i can trim or not to keep it shorter. Mark will place the deck in a bucket and dump the basin. I will do a deep clean on it as if a new project. I will trim the sweets roots and make sure under deck is clean as well.
Ultra... I am keeping the Fresno and depending on if any of the pepper gal starts to change colors i may or may not end that one. However like the Bounty i will be doing a deep clean, root trim, under deck cleaning as well.
The above may be a two day job depending on how my body feels.
My kitchen herb garden won't be due until Thursday, after my mom leaves.

I'm spending my AG part of my weekend vibrating my tomato and pepper plant flowers. The peppers are going nuts, and so far none have fallen off. It's a little nerve-racking, to be honest. I'm used to the tomato plants and their insanity, I guess. On the peppers, there are so many flowers, buds opening, getting ready to open and new ones forming. I can see baby peppers forming in a few of the older blossoms. These small plants seem to want to produce more than large pepper plants I used to grow. Who knew! Thankfully we love peppers, LOL!

I too will be doing some pollinating and cleaning. I’ll be planting my flower GAL if I don’t get to it today. My 2 Sprouts are clean and I think I may use the Sprout Starter to start stuff. I might even start the GAL in it.
I have a Harvest and a tall arm available. I’ll probably use, ultimately, the Harvest for the flowers and the tall arm for the jalapeño GAL.
i have another tall arm outside that needs major cleanup from the majorly infested garden that got even more out of hand when I moved it outside. Who knew that would happen. I’m loathe to tackle that.

ALL DONE! With some changes.
I ended the Pepper GAL because the peppers were small amd not really growing larger and the larger ones not changing colors. So I took the Fresno and put it in with the Sweets in the Bounty.
Now I have the Ultra all set and ready for planting. Which will Jalapeno Gigantia Hybrid and a Pablano from the AG Kit IF I can reach it. Both to be started next week with Mike's GAL. That gives me a little time,

Ok I was going to sell my Extra since I have not used it. I set it up and the pump blew. So today I will put a new pump in, test it out and then dry it up.
I have an Ultra coming (it was a gift I gave someone who never used it and wont so is giving it back  I will just give t hem a check now  ) and will plant my lettuce then. I mean the person was here and raved and said they wanted one. So they got one and then decided nah.... Oh well good thing I got it at a great price. And their "gift" wont cost so much for them. but now I am out money but have a new machine to replace an older one.
Once I get the new pump in the Extra, I will sell it but it will be sold and sent in the Ultra box since I no longer have the Extra one. If anyone will be interested in the Extra PM me an offer. Shipping will be added. Now if you want it with no pump for parts (like the lamp hood, base or bowl separated I will be happy to do that too.)
In the meantime I wait until next week to get my Ultra.

I got the ultra! I found a used one at a yard sale. I picked up some tomato seeds as a first test batch. but I have some other plans with greens and wild strawberries from the rareseeds site

I really like my Ultra, but I think all the big machines are fab.
