Your stuffed little peppers looked great, Shawn! Tasty I’m sure. These look ideal for stuffing for snacks or lunchbox. Maybe even roasting with cheese and stuff.

I am waiting for more to grow. These were so good. Maybe I will roast next time, if I can hold out.

Cubanelle Review:
This pepper has a medium thick flesh and not too many seeds for the size of the pepper. It is sweet with a hint of tartness. Would be good in stir-frys or salads. This one was pretty true to the description with the description of flesh and for sizing most of the peppers are about 3-4" long.
I will be using these with my next stir fry along with hot peppers... unless I put them in a salad first.

I picked the last of the Sheeps yesterday and stuffed them with Chicken Salad. YUM!!! Now I am awaiting the new ones to grow so I can eat more.  My Cubanelles all all turning red. I have picked a few to put in with Marks lunch. Yesterday I fried two up and they were really good and put them on my chicken. |

You really have me anxious for my Sheepnose to come up. Great taste testing on both varieties.

Great review, Shawn. I imagine cooking up the cubanelles intensified the sugars a bit.

I have more sheep flowersd growing but only one more Cubanelle on the plant. There is a flower too. I may end the Cubanelle once this last one turns red. Depending on if I see more Sheeps producing I may end that one too. If so, I will need to figure out what to plant next.  |

Ruminating on what to do next can be so much of the fun .  |

Although I went haywire trimming the Sheepnose, it has a lot of flowers and peppers forming again.  |

These things are dead set and determined to grow.
On my year old Jalapeno plant, after a harvest, I'll cut off entire branches - thick branches - and three days later, I see new branch sprouts growing out of the former site.

I am giving these two plants another 2 weeks tops. If no peppers form then I will terminate and start anew.
The Sheeps have TONS of flowers and the Cubanelles have one flower, several buds and one teenie weenie pepper.

Nothing much happening. The Cubanells have a ton of flowers as does the Sheeps. Only a couple tiny peppers still shown. I am watching to see if there is any growth. If not I will terminate both and start fresh next week.

As with your project here, my projects are going well ,BUT there is no notable progress to snap or relate.
I guess that is a good thing if they are growing nicely, and are not failing or becoming an epic fail!

Cubanelles are growing again!  The Sheeps have tons of flowers but some are falling. I have to take a good look at it to see if there are peppers. |
