We're putting the sweet pepper plants to 100% capacity, hoping to achieve a good harvest soon

It's a pleasure to share another post here in the #hivegarden community with some wonderful sweet pepper plants I have at my grandmother's house. I'd rather neglected them, to the point that just running the hose over them was enough to water them all night long, since the hose doesn't close properly. So I decided it was the perfect time to remove and clear away the weeds that, due to my neglect, were practically covering them and competing for the few nutrients the soil provides.

An important detail is that, in addition to removing the weeds, I also tried to adjust the drainage holes to prevent water waste. I had to be extremely careful since I was practically doing all the work with my bare hands, and with all the broken glass there, I wanted to avoid any accidents, which we certainly don't want, especially right now. As you can see in the photos, they turned out very well. Now all that's left is to water them to see how my work today looks.

When that time came, I grabbed the hose to water them all thoroughly, one by one, so I wouldn't leave the water there but could use it on other plants (like the passion fruit). Despite having planted them some time ago, I haven't noticed much progress; on the contrary, they're still small. But I hope to get a great harvest soon so we can enjoy them and add them to our meals.

They were left like that, well-watered, and seeing my face filled me with satisfaction at what I'd accomplished so far. Although there's still a lot of work to do, the important thing is to keep going and never give up.

Finally, I also watered the other plants, both those in the seed tray and those in the plastic cups. I'm hoping to plant them out soon, because, incredibly, some of them are starting to flower, so the harvest might be near.

Is/was there a rubbish pit somewhere in the yard? Our house predates council rubbish collection so when I've been gardening I've been finding all sorts of interesting things including broken glass x_x (fortunately with tools or gardening gloves and no one has found any the hard way with bare hands or feet yet).

If you collect enough maybe you can make a nice mosaic step or some other art piece for the garden XD

I say meanwhile I threw all the ones I found out because I don't have time for any more hobbies x_x
