Great video again as always!

Also really insightful information. Thank you for sharing!
I really appreciate your encouragement, and I’m glad you found the information helpful! ❤
My gosh the FALLS are SPECTACULAR!!! What is a wet wall? Man, Katy you can’t catch a break! Healthy, healthy Carroltons though…amazing…and they look sooo delicious. Sending good vibes your way.
All appreciation and respect for your efforts and beautiful ideas.

Very nice!!! ❤❤❤
Love your white T shirt !!
You’ve been up against it recently Katy, but I know you’ll prevail against all the problems thrown at you! I’ve occasionally had blossom end rot issues before on sweet peppers (Cali Wonder and Marconi Red) but the hotter chillies seem unaffected. A little dose of Cal-Mag in the Kratky buckets sorted mine out.
That’s just part of growing , we are growing living things not manufacturing plastic. Always million things to go wrong. That’s why it feels great when it all goes right!! Your environmental controls aren’t automatic?
