Even though it has been hot and dry I have been keeping our garden going. Today I planted 16 Hatch green chili plants. I got the seed from one of the brethren in Hatch, NM when we were there and planted some of the seed when we got back. It can take up to 40 days to germinate, so had to wait on that. Then I took the seedlings and put them in their separate containers allowing them to continue to grow until they were ready to be transplanted. So now if I can keep them alive in 2-3 months we should have some nice chili (They take a long time to put on fruit.). Monday I will start my third week of classes as we finish up Ezekiel and the following week begin Daniel. Today was the hottest day of the year so far reaching to 89. With the temperatures being in the upper 80″ and very dry even the grass is beginning to dry up. We are more like mid-May instead of mid-April.
