Here's the basic design:

2 tomatoes, 2 cape gooseberry, 2 ghost pepper

My first attempt at outdoor hydroponics

The tomato plants are an eldritch horror

but growing some lovely fruit

Cape gooseberries have some flowers but I don't think they usually bloom until later in the year. The ghost peppers have been drowned out by the obnoxiously large tomatoes, I don't expect any peppers from them I'm afraid.

So far I'd say my first attempt has been a modest success.
