I'm going to use this thread to share pics that I take from my garden/home orchard. I would like to see pics from other members, if you would like to share them here.

Yalls harvests make it inside? lol. Poor plants in my yard get harassed by my daughter so much they practically beg her to take the harvest to leave them alone. 😂😂 blueberries, no shot I could ever get a picture. They’ll be half green and she’s chomping them down lmao.

Grow some Carolina Reapers. It might fix that problem. 🤣
 
I made salsa with them but I would put mostly jalapeños in it and only put one or two habaneros. Jalapeños are my favorite pepper. I gave away a lot of the habaneros that I grew.

One year I figured I'd try for fun and grew Trinidad Scorpion, Chocolate Moruga and Butch T. I can't imagine any real use for them outside of bragging rights. I tried eating some... They did a number on my insides....
 
Picked these last night before today's storm. Covered with a row cover to keep pests away and let them ripen to nearly perfection. Sweet, very aromatic, and delicious. Mostly Mara de Bois. Can't find something like this in a store. I feel so fortunate.

I grew habaneros when I was in the Army. I took some to work to see if anyone wanted them. A couple of soldiers decided to see who could eat the most. IIRC one of them ate 3 and the other ate 5. I just remember that guy that ate 5 was bent over holding his stomach and walking to his barracks room groaning the whole way.
 
This is my favourite pepper. It came as a family heirloom. Got it from a guy from Puglia... so I call it Vecchio di Puglia. I would guess around 10,000 SHU + sweetness. I love it.

I cut them up... salt, press and pack them in EVOO with garlic... Good on almost everything!

Those look delicious. We grew habanero one year right beside banana peppers and the banana peppers were so hot you couldn’t hardly stand to eat them…..lol. I agree with @ETXfigs jalapenos are my favorite. I have a bunch of Flatiron pepper flakes that are really good mixes if anyone likes pepper flakes.
