Just another update

In addition to the pictures below, I wanted to note that we have tons of Anaheims and Poblanos on the plants right now.  They they are still flowering and more tiny peppers are coming.    One thing to note is that the Jalapeno plant is super small this year when compared to past years.  It is only a foot tall, not 3 or 4.  I think this is because it was shaded out by the greens and the other pepper plants when it was young, but who knows.    The good news is that I don't even need it.  It has been fun eating the new pepper plants.

Sweet potato patch.  Will harvest this patch right around the first frost. 
I have been meaning to take some pictures of the cover crops.  This is winter rye and hairy vetch inter-planted.  The patch in front was sowed 8 days ago, and the patch in the back was sowed 4 days ago. 
You can barely see it, but the straight blades are the rye, and the blades that have little cross leaves on them are the vetch
The collards and watercress that was sowed 9 days ago.
The chard and spinach that was sowed 9 days ago.  No sign of the spinach yet
