Ok more peppers are getting ripe. Im going on the suggestion of keeping the pods on the plant a bit more to ripen and im digging the deeper colours im getting...      

    Ok Kendal, I will keep an eye on the ret of the pods. it could be just a one off thing

Hey There,   This one  was supposed to be Chocolate Habs but turned red and are suspiciously large...   what do you think?         

  Yea, I've learned my lesson on picking peppers close to sunset.       Thanks Chris. It's just a storm water management pond. I don't think I can legally put anything in there and if I did, I would look awfully suspicious fishing in there...

amazing photos, im jelly

  Thanks Sirex!   Truer words have never been spoken!    I have a few habs that are just starting to ripen.... and they are HUGE! like chocolate bhutlah huge. i can't wait to post them.

  Ok, sounds like a plan.   I am dehydrating them and then making powders. i find that to be the best way, for me, to keep them.   I was making sauces out of them last year but its too much trouble and mess and the thought of my little guy getting scorched by a utensil that wasnt washed 100% is...

  Thanks Charles,   I was building a deck that weekend and I wanted something in between water and beer.. i didnt want there to be any mistakes..   Here's the deck. half wood half composite.

Your advise ain't too shabby! Regarding dolmite, a handful is recommended. Should I be buying a soil pH tester and slowly reach neutral or winging it with the dolomite considered normal?

OK sounds good. What kind of ratio am I looking at to say, 3 yards worth of crap soil, and 5 bags of manure? Another great answer. Thank you. How much dolomite am I looking at. I'm not sure of the normal amount to add to a bed my size. Also, I was told to compact soil when I filled the bed. I...

Hey all. I'm am daydreaming about my backyard pepper bed, specifically about the soil. Last year went terribly. I had " triple mix" delivered and I put that into the bed; its about 5' x 20' and 3 feet deep. The soil was sandy and didn't hold moisture well. The peppers were basically stunted...
