I live in 10b, I've heard Inchelium Red might grow in my area. I'm trying it for the first time this year - don't have any hopes but you'll never know until you try

I grew this plant from seed and planted them a few years ago. They grew very tall but did not flower yet and there are no tubers at all. Any suggestions on why there are no tubers to harvest after...

Have a look at the thing growing inside the flower. Does it look like a male thing or a female thing? I think this will answer your question.
in Pumpkin
Yes plant now - just good fertile soil. Good crumbly soil.
in Chilli peppers
Check harvest time in the notes - like 6 weeks or whatever it says.

You can grow whatever you like!

Eat them - don't let them become old. Better to pick a little smaller rather than really big.
