I'm posting an update to my corn and true garlic seed projects, and I'm adding in a bit about my NM chile (peppers) and why I want my own seed that is adapted the way it is. I'll start with the chile. Pic related was my chile beds back in the first part of June. The weeds got as bad as they did for two reasons:

Last year, we literally got double the annual average rainfall, which produced a bumper crop of weed seeds for this year and;

This year, my mother had a major surgery, and I had to pick and choose what got taken care of for a while due to having to take care of her. I picked knocking the Bermuda in where the corn is back. More on that later.

Further compounding the issue was the fact that the seedlings took 2-3 weeks to emerge, when they should have taken closer to 1 week. This gave the weeds an extra 2 week head start.

Yes, there are chile plants in the middle of this bed. They are still only a few inches tall, but they've finally recovered from the weeds. I think I actually caused some root damage when pulling the weeds initially. (Yes, I need to weed again, but at least it is under control now.)

Plans for next year, since the chile has kind of gone through a crucible here:

I will be saving seed from this year's crop, though the crop will probably only yield 25% of what it should have. Next year, I am going to pregerminate the seeds so that I can select for easier germination. The long delay absolutely killed me, and it probably killed half of what I had planted too. I prefer direct sewing because, IMO, you get a more robust root system, but I will be solo cupping these, in part because where they are going is going to have winter rye when it would be time to plant by seed.

They're all NewMex cultivars and crosses of NewMex cultivars. Once established, they're very hardy plants, but getting them established was the tough part this year. Next year, I should be able to start selecting for flavor and heat.

Onto the corn:

That pic was taken on the fourth of July. You'll notice that it has tasseled, and is already producing silk. While I want a genetically diverse population, the timing of the tasseling and silking is something that could knock this plant out of the population, because it is less likely that the cobs will get pollinated, and if they do, it is more likely that it will be self pollination, which eventually leads to retardo-inbred plants, and it will not be able to compete with everything else.

OTOH, if it does get pollinated by another later blooming stalk, it could start to move its flowering time closer to the average. We'll see.

FYI, for those who are unaware, corn is wind pollinated. The tassels produce the pollen, and the silks are the part that accept the pollen.

Another issue with this particular stalk is that the cobs are forming down low. I have raccoons as pests, and raccoons just love low hanging cobs. This is becoming more and more the exception.

One thing I forgot to mention in the last post is that most cobs are now forming 4'-8' off the ground.

Here, you can see a general picture of what most of the corn is doing. It is tasseling, and if you look hard, you might be able to find a few silks emerging.

Again, some of the corn gets a bit of afternoon shade. You can tell what gets it first largely by the average height of the stalks, and by the fact that it is tasseling later than the corn that gets little to no afternoon shade. I will be taking this into account when selecting seed, as this is a serious environmental disadvantage for those stalks. Corn likes full sun, even here in the high desert.

One of the stalks that lodged last time has somewhat uprighted itself. The pic was taken on July 4th, but not much has changed with it. I still will not be saving any seed from it, or any of the others that lodged, despite the fact that we have had some brutal downdrafts. Corn that tends towards lodging can cause other stalks that would otherwise remain upright to lodge too. Just think dominoes.

If it produces, I will eat the stuff though.

The corn is planted too close together for optimum per plant production. As a reminder, I did this on purpose to make them compete with each other, but there is an added benefit. In the pic is some bermuda grass that totally wrecked that bed last year. This year, once the corn got tall enough, all that I have had to do was keep it from going to seed, and the shade has kept it from getting out of control. That is what I was concentrating on instead of the chile. I fucking hate bermuda.

At this time, I spend maybe 5 minutes per week pulling little bits of it up from that bed. That is also why the winter rye is going in - to out compete it next spring.

Now for the garlic:

If you don't recall, I have two lines of garlic going right now. The first one was a hardneck cultivar to begin with, and I have acquired seed from it in the past. That is what is in pic related.

Notice the greenish parts starting to show up in the flowers. Those are ovaries, and they are getting swollen. I probably have 15 or 20 other plants like that. This means that I should be getting seed from this batch.

The question here, is since I have gotten it to produce seed in the past, will it produce more seed this time around, or do I have to grow garlic from true seed to get that to happen. There is probably a lot of epigenetic stuff going on here, but there is also the issue of chromosomal damage that has built up over thousands of generations of cloning that would get fixed by sexual reproduction. I'm not sure which is going to win out here, but I will probably find out in a few weeks.

(For those of you who missed the last time I posted a flurry of pictures, garlic has almost lost the ability to produce true seed. Myself and several others are trying to reverse this, because cloned plants cannot be bred for more hardy cultivars, viruses can build up in your "seed" stock, and chromosomal damage also accumulates.)

Quoted By: >>816635

My second line of garlic was originally a softneck garlic that turned into a hardneck. Softneck garlic has forgotten how to bolt (produce a flowering stalk - which is what the hard neck is in hardneck garlic.) However, it can sometimes be reminded how to bolt with a little bit of stress.

It turns out that I had neglected some garlic for a month or two after I had harvested the rest of it. Living in the desert, I would say that counts as stress.

From this, I saved the bulbils, and planted those two years ago, and this year, they finally all bolted! Something got turned on or off in the original plant, and it passed that on to its offspring.

Bulbils are like mini garlic cloves that grow on the flowering head. See pic related for very developed bulbils. Most people trying to get true seed remove them so that the plant diverts energy to the flowers instead. I did not with this particular plant and a few others just in case I don't get any true seed this year, I can ship those off to collaborators and try again next year.

One thing to notice here is that the flowers haven't shrunk back. That means that the plant has put some energy towards them, but in the next post, you will see some plants where the bulbils were removed.

Quoted By: >>816635

When garlic scapes (bolts,) the flowering head has a sheath. My softneck turned hardneck had its sheaths start to open a couple of days earlier than my hardneck that already has ovaries that should have some seed in them, yet the flowers have yet to open. What is happening is that they are very slowly turning purple over the weeks.

Typically, a flower that is flat out not viable will shrivel away. The fact that these haven't even opened yet is somewhat vexing, but the fact that they haven't shriveled up is also encouraging. I'm not quite sure what is going to happen, but as I have never heard of somebody going from softneck garlic purchased at the grocery store to true garlic seed, I am determined, either this year, or in the future, to succeed.

If it does not work this year, I'm going to try a couple of things in the future:

Stressing the original caused it to bolt. Perhaps a bit of stress once it starts to bolt, or possibly once it starts to flower, could kick seed production into gear. Some organisms are like that: Conditions are poor so they reproduce NOW before they die.

Growing different plants with different soil amendments. I haven't worked this one out in detail yet, but this is uncharted territory for me.

However, if I do get seed, I will take care to get some of them to germinate, and I will have done something that I've not heard of anybody else doing. I'll take those bragging rights;)

That's what I'm told, though the from within the same population is something that I can't answer. Like I say, there are a number of people doing this, and once I have a supply of viable seed, I can start trading and getting other cultivars to cross with.

If you want the empirical answer, first generation true seed garlic (TSG) varies wildly in its fitness, and it becomes more consistent after that, and also produces better seed more readily. How it does five generations out if new genetics is not introduced is something that I do not know.

Some plants are A-OK with inbreeding (common beans and tomatoes for example,) and others get retarded fast. I'm not sure where garlic is on this spectrum.

If the seed isn't mature, no.

Green peppers turn colors when ripe. However, success in getting them fully ripe without rotting is very difficult a lot of times. Hence people just calling them green peppers and picking them while still unripe.

Only if the pepper is about to turn colors anyway. If you pick the pepper while it is still green, and a few days later it turns red or whatever color, the seed is probably viable. It needs to be ripe or almost ripe for the seeds to be good.

Yes, peppers are very easy to do in pots. Use at least a 5 gallon pot or bucket with drainage holes at the bottom; fill it with 3/4 high quality potting soil and 1/4 compost. Peppers are heavy feeders in pots and need regular but light fertilizer. Start with a 5-1-1 fish emulsion when the plants are young and switch to something with more potassium/calcium/magnesium later in the year. Pick off the first few sets of buds to encourage more plant growth; once the peppers set it stops producing foliage for the most part.

So the catalogue for the elderberries I bought said they would grow 3 feet across and 8 feet high. Aparrently by 3x8 what they really meant (in their own instructions mailed with the plants is 12 feet across by 12 feet high. Assholes.

No I've got these soon to be massive tree things in 5x5 boxes on either side of my garden stairs. Should I return them and get something smaller or just ride it out?

Calm down, it will normally takes years for elderberries to reach that size. They are kind of like bamboo in that they can expand quite a bit and have tons of stalks. but, they are not madly invasive like bamboo of course. You can merely keep them trimmed on the sides.

>12 feet high

I've never seen them more than 8 feet high and most are in the 5-7 feet range. I have some I planted near my pond like 5 years ago and they are only 3 feet high so far and this is their first year to fruit. But, soil here is all clay and shitty. I should probably give them a bit of compost at the end of the season.

I live in an area where they grow wild all along the stream/river banks. The only grow about 6 feet total in the growing season then die back to the ground, int he winter, and repeat next season. New plants tend to take several years to properly establish. Once they have enough rootbase they will grow rapidly every year and start the cycle.

>>817115
Mine are just getting started this year. Next year they should be growing much larger. They were just seedlings when they started and are now about 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall.

We are talking about Black Elderberry (Sambucus nigra.)

And, it is nothing at all like invasive bamboo's invasive nature. They grow on banks mostly but you can also find them growing in other trees as a epiphyte but that is pretty rare.

Sambucus nigra is the most common species around here, maybe your climate is colder or hotter during the summer because it takes years to kill them here even if you dump roundup on them.

Made my first crushed red pepper of the year. This is only 7-8 dragon cayenne peppers, the first ones to ripen. There are at least 30 more on the plant that haven't turned yet.

The late season harvest will be YUGE!

>Reheating
that implies heating it twice you mong and pesto shouldn't be heated at all.

Maybe it's your lack of English. But i ((heat))) up frozen pesto by letting it thaw in the fridge. Then it can be placed directly on freshly cooked pasta which warms it to the proper temperature for eating.

This is one of the few times I had some excavator. Normally, I burn these out with fire, but its location sorta prevents that. I can't wait for chemical stump remover to work and I'm not paying $250/day to rent an excavator just for this one job. Thus, all day is being spent on removing it by hand. This is like the 15th stump I've had to remove by hand and it has the largest roots I've ever seen.

*WARBLEGARBLE*

At least it isn't terribly hot today, just mindbogglingly humid. I stopped and tied up tomatoes for an hour, probably another hour's worth of tomato tying to be done. Just for 1 cherry tomato using Simple Layering.

You wont have heard of this one I'm sure, it's Jerusalem Artichoke. It's basically a sunflower that grows potatoes.

It's a really bitchin plant but it likes to take over. I like a plant that wants to take over.

Jerusalem Artichoke grows up to 15 feet tall and its tubers are extremely productive. We're talking 12 pounds per plant.

I double digged this section to get these to grow as tall as possible. I'm secretly trying to shade out all the gardeners north of me.

I had enough to harvest three 5-gallon buckets of tubers last year. They are amazing and hardy. Only problem with them are leaf hoppers. You can store them int he fridge of in the ground. Just let them get cold for like 2 weeks then eat them and they will be far sweeter than when straight out of the ground.

....and their nick-name is "fartichoke" for all the gas they can give you due to the inulin content.

I no longer grow them because I simply can't eat enough of them to make a dent. I can only eat like a 1x1x1 inch cube and it will give me wicked gas.

>>817404 to >>817419 and probably beyond

That's a really good looking garden you have going on there. I've been graveling mine with paths the past few days. I'm thinking about adding just a few stepping stones here and there for when I'm barefooted and it isn't rain-slick.

Apparently if you can get your gut bacteria really healthy, they can deal with the inulin. Worst case scenario I can't process them and I just become a tuber vendor to other people wanting to grow the plant.

It has to do with having the right gut flora for the inulin in the first place. It doesn't have anything to do with actual health. Some are just better for it than others. for instance, I can't eat inulin-containing stuff due to gas. However, I can eat a mountain of any type of bean and never get any gas at all while friends and relatives can explode with gas after eating beans. The down side is that I digest beans so well that I'll gain pounds of fat like nothing. No other food does that to me.

If you have chickens you can grind up the sunchokes and feed it to the chickens. You can also use them to make alcohol.

November experimental seedling aside (this one still lives too!), for the rest of them I did the following
>Put the seeds in run of the mill flower soil in mid-March in a planter thingie (dunno if there's a name for it, basically a planter of 6 compartments of 5x5x5cm each, pic related some time after sprouting)
>Wrapped plastic foil around it to keep up moisture
>Placed on top of radiator for constant ~30°C
>Sprouted within 4-5 days
>Kept inside until mid-May with alu-foil coated press wood panel behind it for maximum natural illumination
>After some hardening-off, planted out in the garden (spacing roughly 0.5m^2 per plant) with black plastic foil cause it's still kinda cool here in mid-May (avg high/mean/low is about 20/15/10°C during that time)
>Removed black foil around early June
>Let them just grow after that, not caring about pruning tips etc
I'll continue like that, there's about 10 fruits in total so far and I'll let a few more come, but I think I'll remove any new fruit setting after early August because they won't ripen any more, so the plants can better concentrate their "powers" on the remaining fruits

This guy again, spent some time researching it but I'm kinda in over my head so I have a few more questions.

My plan was to basically create a tiny garden in a tray that's around 1ft squared.
In the garden I was going to plant a bonsai tree or two and cover the rest of the soil in moss however it looks like moss needs a lot of humidity which wouldn't be very good for the trees.

What would be a good substitute for moss (i.e looks similar) that can co-exist with bonsai?
Would a 40W CFL suffice for this?

Any resources would be appreciated too.
A ridiculous amount of the videos about grow lights on youtube are aimed at pot growers.

Always heard/read about melons apparently requiring manual (human assisted) pollination (with paintbrushes and whatnot) but I never did that with mine and they're still fruiting left and right, but maybe it's because I have strawberries (everbearing) and thyme shrubs growing next to them that are attracting bees like crazy (both still flowering now, strawberries might even flower until December), so maybe them getting "lost" to the melons is enough for pollination

The thing is, I have a terrible phobia of caterpillars. I honestly didn't think about it when I started and I saw today that there were caterpillars on my Basil. I had to get my boyfriend to throw away some good plants because I was about to have a panic attack.

How so I stop them from coming? I saw a new one and I can't go back outside. I'm sweating really bad right now. I just need a guaranteed 100% method to get rid of caterpillars completely.

But get some bt spray. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) causes caterpillars and other worms almost instant and assured death by disease. It hurts nothing but caterpillars. Spray it on before they show up and they'll steer clear-- spray after they arrive to end the party.

The extra roots strengthen the plant allowing for much more fruit.. If the layering is far enough away it will still have room to grow large.

lol what? Beefsteak is an indeterminate variety. They continue to grow indefinitely. At the very most you trim the flowers of the truss back leaving only 4 developing tomatoes. Just make sure they are already starting to develop. This will increase the size of the tomatoes, that is all.

You don't trim off the entire truss until after you've picked all the ripe fruit off of it.

The tomato plant itself will last for several years so long as you keep it from frost damage and above 55F/12C.

Having new flowers developing at the end of the season won't affect fruit lower on the plant. The only thing that affects those fruit are how many leaves are below them.

Tell me all about goats. For a long time it's been a pipedream of mine to move back to the Tennessee/North Carolina border, buy some cheap land and farm goats on it. Goat milk and meat are my favorite respective dairy and meat products, and having a fresh supply sounds like the best hobby ever. I also married a farm girl who misses the land, so I think we could probably manage it. How retarded am I for even considering it? How do you manage a supply chain like that? I think you'd have to travel a couple of hours to Atlanta (possibly Chattanooga to the Mexicans) to find any real market. Am I retarded? Should I just stop now?

Try to build some savings beforehand because I doubt you'll get rich but you might scrape by and like I said it will be a nice life. We had a few goats growing up and while I never liked the milk (picky little shit of a kid I was) they were fun to have around.

I felt nothing for our meat chickens, but they were mean bastards and it never left my mind that they were food. Our laying hens on the other hand were nice, I didn't mind them. We raised both sheep and Nubian goats though never many of either, they were for milk and wool though so I never considered them food. They did eventually go to the local slaughterhouse but we didn't eat them. I would feel a little bit uncomfortable killing a pig, cow, or other animal that I had raised, especially if I could tell it trusted me, but if that was their purpose I could do it.

Yeah, it is a huge difference between raising fish to eat and raising goats to eat.

It is even worse when people start naming them and describing neat events and encounters with them. It really makes me like hunting and fishing a lot more.

Thanks for the input. If I understand well, when they're settled for meat it's once and for all? Did that happen that laying hens became meat ones (or the opposite), or was it avoided for productivity or attachment reasons?
Also, you tell the meat chickens were mean, so I "prejudged" you were not in good terms with them, though I don't have a clue about how you were acting. Were you more "sympathetic" to laying hens while in relation with them or did you treat them both equally (meat chickens and laying hens)? (You said "if that was their purpose I could do it", so I'm asking myself if you "actively" avoid being more intimately engaged with animals you raise for meat, or if it is more something in the back of the head, without much influence on how you're acting with them)

(That's a lot of questions)

>>818156
So for you the separation has to be quite clear between what you eat and what you pet as >>818165 implied, the less you know about their lives the easier it gets to eat.

Not that anon, but I did get attached to the fish we had in a fuckhuge aquarium we had growing up. The weren't smart at all, not cute either (except for the clown loaches) and were really just moving decorations. Still named them though and was a little distressed if any died. Not, say, as much as a pet dog or cat, but still.

I think its just part of our social nature to get attached and sympathize with other living things, even if its not our own species, or heck, even an animal. I have fond memories of a jade tree my mom had growing up, for Christ's sake. Humans have to actively work NOT to get attached to things by not giving them names or other workarounds. And it doesn't always work, either, no matter how much you try.

No, I have no qualms at all slaughtering, "pets". It is just easier to hunt because you don't have everyone in the family pissed off at you for killing, "Billy" for supper. What a lot of people do around here when they start raising food animals for meat. Most of the animals become family pets. They even dig graves for them when they die.

>Do you know about people who "bond" with fishes?

People bond with everything. It is part of human nature. However, fish tanks for fish raised for meat are not like the show tanks where you can easily see and "interact" with the fish. Thus, people tend to bind with them less because of that and because they are fish, which more people find to be "alien" and unrelatable.

>>818224

There's nothing wrong with that. I'm a sociopath and I don't bond with anything or anyone. If you had no problem killing them then I'd say you have a problem.

There are poisonous caterpillars though. One of them can kill you.

I had Saddleback caterpillars on my corn one year. Holy fuck they hurt. It didn't look like much on my skin but it felt like a super bad muscle cramp, only in my skin instead of a muscle and it lasted for like 12 hours.

>Giant Silkworm Moth (Lonomia obliqua)
>It was also discovered that the toxin in the caterpillar's skin held potent anti-clotting agents. This anti-clotting agent would attach to another protein to the body's cells and cause them to leak as blood is unable to clot. This internal bleeding would fill the surrounding tissue with "bruised blood". This internal bleeding spreads through the internal organs and eventually leads to compression and brain death. This accounts for the minimum of 500 deaths resulting from contact with L. obliqua caterpillars. The poison only takes effect in fairly large amounts; in order to experience the extreme effects caused by the toxins, a human victim would probably need to be stung at least 20 to 100 times because each sting only injects a minute amount of venom.

I've been making and freezing pesto for years. I don't make it with parm anymore before freezing, and I think it freezes (and tastes) super good.

I also blanch the leaves which keep them green (instead of going that almost black color).

OP, if it's a hobby, then do it. If it's your way to make a living, then do the business plan, first. I raise a few goats, and a bunch of other animals for meat (mostly CSA, some restaurant and retail). There are TONS of people out there that will pay top dollar for good meat. You just need to find them and raise a quality product. Do it right and you;ll be psyched you did.

>>818128
Taking a life is tricky, no matter what. It just depends on who you are. All my animals are done at a slaughterhouse, but I still put a few down. I would do them all myself if it was legal (it is, but it's a hassle, and would be more expensive to my customers) because it would be my preference. But there's no enjoyment (well, mostly. IT's like crying at a happy part in a movie. I enjoy doing it because the animals deserves to go out with one shot while it's eating grass, not get loaded in a trailer and go to a slaughterhouse) in it.

I've never canned it. I only "can" with a hot water bath in mason jars, and I woudn't want to heat it up to that temp. If you have freezer space, I'm telling you, it freezes really well. Best without the cheez, but even with it's okay.

Thanks for your input, that surprised me and was quite on the opposite spectrum concerning raising and killing compared to what has been said on the thread. You said you prefer them to go out "while eating grass", so I wonder, do you have any specific gestures when you slaughter them yourself ? (by example, in what kind of moment, do you calm the animal, etc.). Also (and once again naive question), do you have any "rituals" when loading the trailer? (I don't mean magical summoning, more like ways of dealing with it)

Not really, just want them not to have any idea what's going on. I prefer them to not be nervous or upset. A bullet to the head while they're eating. Taking a chicken off the roost in the early hours of morning whiel it's still relaxed.

>do you have any "rituals" when loading the trailer
my animals will walk into the trailer on their own because I get them used to the trailers with grain. When it's time for me to take them, I put food in the trailer and in htey go. Sometimes I get a steer that I don;t want (would rather take a bigger one), but it's not a big deal.

A bit out of the blue, but do any of you anons have any experience making/maintaining small automated greenhouse like systems (for instance the Personal Food Computer from MIT's open agriculture project)? It seems like the perfect thing for growing small scale plants in areas with ambient weather conditions not suitable to what you want to grow, seed starting, or for city dwellers with a dearth of earth to plant in.

Been thinking of trying to build one, but I have no idea if it's within my abilities to do so, and was hoping someone else might have tried it here and could give me a few pointers.

Sorry to have offended you, but where I live we use double row covers, early-plant 2-month old tomato plants we started indoors, remove 1 row cover layer as it gets warm, remove the row covers completely when danger of frost is over, have a great season, put the row covers back on in the fall, put a second layer on when it gets even colder, and have a massive crop.

The growing season here is like May to September, but with row covers we extended it from as early as Feb and as late as November; all unheated.

The variety of tomato makes a large difference too. Cold hardy varieties do better for this than summer ones.

No one knows when your season ends or begins. No one knows what methods you are using. No one knows what varieties of tomatoes you are using (there's over a dozen or two of beefsteak, some are cold hardy and some not). Just asking "when do I butcher my flowers?" isn't a proper question. Try using google for such useless uninformative questions.

That answer is always, "never". Because new fruit on tomato plantsdo not affect lower fruit; only multiple fruit on a single truss affects other fruit on the same truss and you can always use green tomatoes in food and cooking in a variety of ways.

I don't water my lawn. I hunt, trap, and fish. I raise animals and have several vegetable gardens. I dehydrate, cool-store, water bath can, and pressure can a variety of meats & vegetables and various dishes like stews, soups, and stocks.

Only some gasoline to cut my lawn, ammo for hunting, electric for the water well pump, and chicken feed costs me money. The lawn clippings are composted into new soil for growing crops. I sometimes trade my vegetables and meats with family and friends for services or goods they grow/raise that I don't. The chicken eggs are so plentiful that I'm able to cover all costs by selling them and I still have enough eggs for myself.

For the ammo I use, it costs all of $1 per deer. The firearm, bow, traps, snares, and fishing equipment paid for themselves over 25 years ago. I rarely need to replace an arrow, the live traps never need replacing, the snares need replacing once every 8-10 years at most. I don't hunt, trap, and fish that much anymore. I mostly fish now. Farming provide most of what I need.

And that tomatillos (different species) are sometimes mislabelled "green tomatoes" but are indeed untoxic

Try sticking a full, upended water bottle with a hole in the lid into the soil near the base of the plant. Your cantaloupe will like the constant small trickle of water. And if it really gets bitchin' hot out like it's doing right now for me, a layer of mulch-such as straw-around the base of the plant will shade the roots and keep them cool and moist.

Oh I don't have them potted but out in the garden (so roots should ideally be kinda deep and always have access to at least SOME water, plus it's definitely always dry again on top for hours before I re-water, so no drowning - it hasn't rained for 18 days here, and not properly for 26)
It's 8 (I think?) plants in total, the whole area is a sort of mess with vines growing all over the place, I can't even tell which vine belongs to which base, or where the bases exactly are without some investigating

Every person I know eats green tomatoes here. Fried green tomatoes are the go-to dish. People bring massive platters of them to events, parties, and meetings. I've had green tomatoes about 4 times this week. I also have tons of green tomato sauce pressure canned and sitting on my shelves. I use it in salsa and various sauces through the winters. I prefer it fresh though.

You're just being sheltered and missing out on some great food.

Are those really unripe green tomatoes (that would otherwise go red if let to ripen longer on the plant), or are those cultivars that stay green even when ripe (such exist) or another nightshade family species often referred to as "green tomato", the tomatillo? BIG difference

They don't grow into trees, they can't support their own weight after a certain point. There are definitely places where they can fill up an overhead trellis, though people usually pick plants for aesthetics rather than output in that situation.

Off the top of my head a lot of medditeranean herbs like basil and rosemary are happier with less water than more "temperate" herbs like parsley or thyme.

They are unripe tomatoes of any variety. Like you go out and harvest some beefsteak tomatoes or cherry tomatoes before they are ripe. Tomatillo are not the same thing, but I sometimes grow those too. They are great for salsa too.

Put a board down. Few things will go deeper than three feet, but make it four just to be sure.
>Racoons climb over it
Razor wire. Or an electric wire along the top. Or electrified razor wire, to be on the safe side.
>squirrels
Electrified razor wire will do pretty well against them, but you could also get a small rifle or shotgun and turn a pest into a resource. They're not bad in stew. This applies to rabbits as well, though raccoons should only be eaten if you need to for economic reasons, they don't taste good.

Then do an electric wire atop a wooden fence and use staples to keep it flush. Wood doesn't really conduct, so it'll work fine, but it'll be visually hidden from any tattle-tale neighbors.

Use a fencing skirt. It extends out from the main fence and is laid flat on the ground. If something tries to dig, they just hit the fencing. This is what I use.
