Pitiful Pepper Picking

As my ongoing efforts have failed to adequately quell my squirrel problem, I was forced to take extreme gardening measures last spring. That's right, I sprung for the as-seen-on-TV hanging planters. Shockingly, they didn't work. The tomatoes grew massive vines but never produced fruit. And only now, six months after it was planted, is my pepper crop offering a few tasty nibbles.
