Garden update - Checking on the garden after my holiday

WHAT IS THAT?!

My reaction when I saw my garden after 3 weeks of absence

I silently hoped that my peppers would be red but I just couldn't believe my eyes when I saw 10 red ones. 1 plant, 10 red peppers with about 5 more coming. That's quite a nice yield for my first try!

None of the photos in this post are photoshopped or edited, they are really THIS red

But wait, there is more:
One bell pepper is already turning red as well! They are absolutely tiny and about as big as a tennis ball, I can't wait for them to turn completely red.

So how is the aquaponic herb setup doing?
Quite well, but not as good as the herbs which had more sunlight and were just in soil.
Still, quite some root growth, which is nice.

So, I know autumn is still a long way to go, but I'm thinking about building an indoor greenhouse. This would enable me to keep some of the plants alive, while also giving me some plant related stuff to Steem about.
