Protect the marked pepper plants until the seed is fully mature, well past the point you would ever eat it, a resident's own home garden, near the town center, Sinton, TX 78387 (San Patricio County; best-estimate location, exact address not confirmed).

A pepper you would pick to eat is not a pepper with mature seed inside; seed needs weeks longer on the plant than the kitchen does, and a marked plant left unprotected gets picked by mistake, eaten by pests, or knocked down before the seed inside is ready.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

weekly dated progress photos + protection-in-place confirmation + resident permission on file

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the marker flag or tag from the prior rung is still in place and visible; re-tie or replace it if it has faded or fallen.
2. 2. Cover the marked plant or fruit with netting or a simple cage where birds, squirrels, or foraging pests are a real risk, without blocking sun or airflow.
3. 3. Check weekly that the marked fruit has not been picked by mistake, and let it hang on the plant well past its normal eating-ripe color, until it is fully mature and beginning to dry, wrinkle, or change to its final seed-ripe color.
4. 4. Photograph the marked fruit each week to document it progressing past the eating stage toward full seed maturity.

What counts as done

• Confirmation that the marker or tag from the prior rung remains in place and legible
• Weekly dated photo showing the marked fruit progressing past eating-ripe toward full seed maturity
• Protective netting or cage confirmed in place where pest pressure is present
• Resident permission record confirmed still current

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Edible Garden Cultivation. Edible garden cultivation is food growing done to the standards the land-grant universities have refined for a century: healthy soil in tested beds, the right crop in the right season, hand tools, patience, and records. Mastery looks like a Master Gardener's plot, beds that feed a family most of the year from a piece of ground the size of a parking space. Every gardener who reaches that point started with a single bed and a single season. This packet is that start: one bed built or tended properly, one honest note about what happened.
