Being lazy, I finally got most of my garden (tomatos and peppers)
planted over the weekend. Also had some of the rainbow chard which
survived from last year with dinner yesterday. Now, if the local
rabbit will just leave stuff alone...


What kind of peppers? Bell or hot? I have planted hot peppers and wonder
about the local animals -- birds, rabbits and squirrels -- and if they will
take more than one bite of a habanero, jalapeno, or serrano.


Six sweet bell, six cayenne, two habanero (at the end closest to the
street, partly as a theft deterent :-) ).

I don't think the animals (including my occasionl logn-eared visitor)
will touch the hot peppers, but I know crickets will eat the cayenes.
I've seen them doing it...

Guess they'd make interesting fish bait.
