Rollie Pollies/Doodle Bugs/Pill Bugs...whatever name you call them, they are a menace. They have apparently morphed into something that is not only attacking decaying matter.

I bought 3 jalapeno plants and a 40 in by 10in planter. The jalapenos were about 8 to 10 inch plants. I followed the directions and planted. The leaves are turning pale/silver. The stems are turning black. What could be the cause.
Can I get a hot tub

Been trying to figure out how to put up a trellis for the blackberries and finally put in the best I could come up with it's on both sides of fence  
The day after catching a lot of fish is still a good day.

Works for me . Are those thornless ? I remember looking like a pincushion every summer at both grandfathers' farms.
When do you prune yours ?

Is it too hot for turnip greens now ? I've had trouble getting them over an inch high this year .
I had a nice crop growing in some planters around the end of March but they just shriveled up . Those in the garden did the same a week ago. I don't think it's the seeds because they germinate fine and I've used this variety for years.
I do have cotton-tails around but they've never bothered them in the past. Besides , the planters were too tall for anything short of a pole-vaulting rabbit.

The closest one in the pic is thorn less and it doesn't do squat just a couple small berries I put it in just to see what it would do and I'll let the other ones take over and weed the thorn less out. After all the berries are gone I prune back all the canes that had berries. Every spring/summer they put out new big canes and once they get about 4' tall I cut them which will get them to produce more lateral shoots.

I'm suprised your thornless didn't do well. I planted 4 3 years ago and the 2nd year was great. Last year , not so much. Maybe thorned and thornless don't cross-pollinate as well ?

I'm topping the new canes that come up from the ground each spring that won't have fruit until the following year. After all the berries are gone early summer I cut each little shoot back that had berries on it, when I'm done there isn't any sign that it had berries. This year has been exceptionally good!

Today's harvest  My tomatoes are so close, I have at least 500 on the vine but they aren't maturing fast enough for me. I want to start canning.
