I think year 2 of Alabama gardening will just be peppers. I think I'll grow enough to have them frozen for year-round treats.

I generally plant large pepper crops no more than every 3 years. Takes about that long to use up all I have frozen from last big crop. Lots of tomatoes, but I can a lot, plus salsa most years. Thinking about making my own tomato sauce and canning it this year. Most peppers I grow seem to freeze whole just fine!
